SSC staff offers customized facilitation and consulting on teaching and learning initiatives. Staff members develop and deliver services that meet your needs ... all you have to do is ask! We work with districts and schools to develop a system for supporting and monitoring improvement efforts. We help you implement fundamental changes in areas such as needs assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation. With our support you can redefine the expectations for your schools, the improvement process itself, and the districts role in this endeavor.
Areas of focus are determined jointly by your leadership teams and the SSC school improvement team. Services are grounded in research-based best practices and designed to improve student achievement through excellence in professional practice while building internal capacity. We facilitate planning, designing, and implementing a continuous improvement plan. We also have several improvement processes already designed and available. Our staff are certified and experienced in guiding groups through proven processes such as Data Retreats®, Surveys of Enacted Curriculum, and the Six Steps to a Guaranteed and Viable Curriculum.
