Why Leading PLCs at Work® Districtwide?
Because isolated improvement efforts don’t scale—and students pay the price.
Districts everywhere are working hard to improve teaching and learning. But without a systemwide approach, even strong initiatives stall, vary by school, or disappear with leadership turnover. When expectations, goals, and supports aren’t aligned from the boardroom to the classroom, coherence breaks down—and so does impact.
Leading PLCs at Work® Districtwide exists to solve that problem.

What makes this work different?
Rather than focusing on isolated schools, this systemwide approach establishes a shared understanding of PLC at Work® and defines clear roles for every level of the organization. It helps districts align goals with student learning outcomes and build systems for data, curriculum, and accountability, ensuring the work is sustained.

Who this work is for
This work is designed for K–12 districts and is most often sponsored by the superintendent or designee.
Built on proven research and practice
Participants engage in this work using Leading PLCs at Work® Districtwide by Robert Eaker, Janel Keating, Mike Hagadone, and Meagan Rhoades, ensuring a shared language, framework, and evidence base across the district.
Highly effective PLCs are much more than a group of people working hard at doing the right work. In high‑performing PLCs, the work is structured and organized to flow both up and down in a rational, effective way.
"This book is a no-nonsense call for clarity and collaboration in educational leadership. Eaker, Hagadone, Keating, and Rhoades demonstrate how any district can align its practices and transform student learning."
