Personalized Guidance for Leaders to Transform Districts

The work instructional leaders do is critical to the success of students, but leaders often find themselves isolated within their roles without the specialized professional learning they need to grow. Coaching provides leaders with an experienced partner who has a background in school or district leadership to develop their capacity to lead and support both teachers and students.

The Phases of Connected Professional Learning

Instructional Coaching is one component of a professional learning program that uses layered learning experiences paced throughout the school year to create lasting changes. A connected professional learning program provides every educator with differentiated learning experiences and works toward specific, measurable outcomes to ensure both teachers and leaders gain the tools and resources they need to help all students succeed.
