Event Reviews
“This was AMAZING! I am inspired and have so many actionable items to take back to use with my teams. This training shifted my whole thinking on the PLC process.”
“As a teacher, I thrive when there is structure. The SIG is a powerful tool I plan to utilize with the help of our building leadership team to help make our PLCs more effective and meaningful. A personal goal I have set for myself is to utilize the framework for coaching collaborative teams: clarify, feedback, and support. These are areas where I greatly need to hone my skills.”
“I learned ways to assess our current PLC process as well as incremental steps to continually improve the process.”
“The tools we received, such as the SIG and Pathways . . . are going to be so helpful going forward!”
