We specialize in curriculum-based professional learning, using our evidence-based model of professional learning, coined Head, Heart, Habits, and Equity. We envision a world where teachers and students thrive together in communities that enable lifelong learning and meaningful lives.
In partnership with teachers, we transform professional learning from the ground up to dramatically improve student outcomes. We also work with school, district, and state leaders to create the instructional systems necessary to support these changes.
To shift systems for teacher professional learning, we recommend that partnerships with school systems extend over 3 to 5 years. We start by directly facilitating professional learning and then gradually passing the responsibility off to Lab Leaders through continuous coaching support. Eventually, systems run their own Labs and local Cycles independently.
Our model is based on the best educational research and years of experience using exceptional instructional materials with teachers. Our team of educators is committed to ensuring all students — especially students traditionally underserved by school systems — meet the academic and social expe...ctations necessary to succeed now and in the future. Our partners believe in the power of great teaching to inspire students at all levels to learn and grow.
We are dedicated to building a teacher-led network that leverages grassroots organizing and research-based professional learning to serve all students, no matter their background or zip code.
We envision a teaching profession where educators own and drive a culture of learning and continuous improvement in their instructional practice, dramatically improving equitable student outcomes.
