Coaching Update!
What's New in Coaching?
My Vision of Coaching
My work is about collaborating with teachers to impact student learning in positive ways. I want to empower teachers to be reflective in their instructional practice as we focus on student learning and data analysis, which is at the heart of everything I will do.
Guiding Principles
This is about what’s best for students. I will always put students first.
We are all professional learners and can learn from each other. I don't know all the answers.
I will seek to be reflective, both personally and in the questions I ask.
Collaboration with ALL teachers to help ALL students.
