Twisted Topic: Interview with Joshua Stamper

Send us a text

We are so excited to have had the opportunity to interview Assistant Principal, Joshua Stamper. He is the first administrator we've been able to interview, and it is well worth the listen. 

Joshua Stamper initially used his artistic talent, creativity, and original ideas as a professional graphic designer. He then transitioned to inspiring students to utilize their imagination and creative expression in public education. Being unsuccessful as a student growing up, Joshua never expected to be back in the classroom as a teacher, athletic coach, or administrator. His struggles as a student spawned a passion to change the education model, push the boundaries of traditional learning, and explore new innovative ideas. Joshua has been a middle school Assistant Principal in North Texas for the past eight years, where he's served at four campuses in two school districts.

In addition to his current administrative position, Joshua is the host of Aspire: The Leadership Development Podcast, an author, leadership coach, education presenter, and Podcast Network Manager for the Teach Better Team. 

Joshua is married to Leslie and the father of five. Joshua and Leslie became foster parents in 2011 and had the privilege of adopting three of their children from foster care. Joshua and Leslie are trained in trauma-informed practices for meeting the emotional, social, and behavioral needs of children who have been through adverse childhood experiences, which Joshua also applies to his role as administrator. 

Joshua and Leslie have co-written some blog posts to help and support other educators and parents with Trauma-Informed practices. You can connect with Joshua on Twitter, Instagram, or his website. You can even book Joshua for a keynote or school-based training and that information is also linked.
