Meet Your Instructors:

For years, Pat Adkins and Kelly Croy have partnered to build one of Ohio's most respected school districts by creating a culture where leadership is shared, innovation is expected, and every decision aligns with what is best for students. Together, they have helped lead Port Clinton City Schools to state and national recognition for its strong culture, instructional excellence, and commitment to continuous improvement. Their collaborative approach has made them sought-after keynote speakers, conference presenters, and leadership facilitators who equip school leaders across the country with practical strategies for building high-performing organizations.

Pat brings more than two decades of superintendent experience with deep expertise in organizational alignment, strategic planning, and culture development. Kelly complements that vision with 35 years of experience in curriculum, instructional innovation, educational technology, and professional learning. Together, they believe exceptional schools are built through trust, shared leadership, and a relentless commitment to developing people. Their message is both practical and inspiring: when leaders intentionally align their systems, invest in their people, and create opportunities for others to lead, extraordinary results follow.
