WHAT

Introductory presentations

provide an overview of research and best practices

of the three primary concepts:

​

(A) Standards-Based Learning

(B) Social-Emotional Learning

(C) Human Development

​

All presentations and coaching are provided under a model of "adopt and adapt"

to help schools tailor these concepts to their needs.

Presentations are booked at a school's preferred location at a time convenient for the staff, in the morning, midday, or afternoon.

​

The initial presentation allows for an overview and discussion of primary and secondary concepts of this framework and philosophy.

​

Followup presentations and coaching are scheduled at the discretion of the school according to a customized transition timeline.

​

Presentations are always* in-person and coaching is provided via video-conferencing for ongoing feedback and advice specific to the needs of each teacher and their students.

​

*COVID-19 UPDATE:

Presentations will be scheduled via Zoom (or other preferred platform)      - indefinitely.

WHY

As we prepare our students for success in college or careers,

it is critical that elementary, middle, and high schools adopt and adapt a well-rounded philosophy towards academic, social-emotional, and human development.

​

Many students spend roughly half of their waking hours on a school campus (8am - 4pm).

Students learn more than academics on a school campus. They develop friendships, mentors, study skills as well as life skills on a school campus.

It is important that educators not only serve to improve student academic success, but in order to do so must equally improve student social-emotional and human development in ways that help students take ownership of their learning - and their future.
