  • Beyond the Dates: Understanding the School Calendar Process with Victoria Padilla

    Beyond the Dates: Understanding the School Calendar Process with Victoria Padilla
    Mar 10 2026
    Have you ever wondered why school starts when it does, or why exactly five "emergency days" are built into every schedule? In this episode of the ROE #17 POD, we turn the mic on one of our own: Victoria Padilla. Victoria walks us through the complex legal requirements and the "math" behind the Illinois school calendar. We discuss the 176-day attendance mandate, how the ROE ensures districts meet state standards, and the difference between instructional and non-instructional time. Victoria also sheds light on how holidays, parent-teacher conferences, and E-Learning days are integrated into the official calendar before it ever reaches the State Board of Education. If you've ever been curious about the "how" and "why" behind your student's school year, this episode is for you!

    Feb 24 2026
    In this episode of the ROE #17 POD, we dive into the vital world of professional learning and leadership development for school administrators. We are joined by Dr. Stacie France, the ROE # 17 Director of Professional Learning. Stacie is a specialist in administrator coaching, and we discuss how the role of the principal has evolved and what skills are non-negotiable for today’s educational leaders. We explore the "adult learning" challenge—how busy administrators can find time for their own growth while managing the daily needs of their buildings—and the unique journey of transitioning from the classroom to the front office.

    What is it really like to attend an alternative school? In this episode of the ROE #17 POD, we sit down with Devon Whitsey, a former student of the Regional Alternative School (RAS), to hear his firsthand account of life outside the traditional high school setting. Devon opens up about the highs and lows of his experience, explaining how the unique environment at RAS fundamentally changed the trajectory of his high school education. We discuss what Devon is up to now and what he wants the community to know about RAS.
