First Quarter 2025 Report
Updates
In the first quarter of 2025, we upgraded to a faster server to improve site speed and reliability. Visitors to The Dock will notice improved search results and speed with fewer timeouts.
While The Dock School Leader podcast does not have a large audience, we are seeing steady growth in monthly listeners. Many of our first releases continue to receive attention indicating that the content is valuable enough for multiple listens or our subscribers are going back through the released episodes and listening to the ones they missed.
In the next few months, we will be uploading recordings from Faith Builders Teachers Week, REACH 2022, Teacher Inspiration Day (TID), Western Fellowship Teachers Institute (WFTI), and other events.
