This partner's approach and services

Sample scopes of work
What are these scopes?
How we address equity
Our work addresses gaps in opportunity faced by our students that are the result of systemic oppression and racism. Equity is at the center of our mission and manifests in our programming in two ways. First, participants are asked to reflect on their own identities, biases, and contributions to systems of oppression in order to dismantle them. Additionally, equity is crucial to our content learning because it gives teachers the knowledge and skills to ensure all students engage in grade level content.
Why is this important?
How we build district capacity
Building capacity in partners to ultimately own systems of adult learning is key in measuring the success of partnerships at LE. We dedicate internal, content-specific staff expertise to work with system and instructional leaders and other stakeholders to model, co-create, and hand-off the creation of all content and curriculum-specific PL systems. These supports deepen the content knowledge and implementation base, so leaders can effectively sustain the conditions for successful professional learning.
Why is this important?
How we provide curriculum-aligned PL

Workshops

Content-specific whole-group experiences that tackle theoretical and research-based knowledge building while allowing time planning and practice with application so the learning leads to real change. Workshops are rooted in context and student needs, invite participants to take ownership of their learning, and cover clear expectations for showing evidence of mastery.

Coaching

Coaching with teachers or leaders can take the form of practicing instructional strategies and getting feedback, planning with leaders to deliver high quality PL for their teachers, observing classrooms and debriefing, or reflecting on evidence like student work to reveal progress and changes needed in teacher practice.

PLCs

Leading Educators designs and facilitates problem solving communities for instructional leaders like coaches or principals to share best practices, troubleshoot challenges, and get feedback from those in similar roles.

Consultations

Strategic advising at the systems level can include curriculum implementation and equity reviews with recommendations, the creation of an instructional vision, curriculum adoption and implementation plan, and the co-design of an evaluation strategy for curriculum-based professional learning.
