Implementation Coaching Visits
At The Leadership and Learning Center, a division of Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, we ask ourselves daily, “What do students need, what to teachers need, and what do school leaders need?” In doing so, we have developed research-based solutions to respond to those needs.
Our sustainable approach to improving student achievement and school transformation is designed to help every district and school succeed. Our ability to understand the big picture, and get down to deep implementation on-site in your school or district, is the cornerstone of our world class professional development and services.
The Center’s ground-breaking work in 90/90/90 Schools™ across the country (90% poverty, 90% minority, and 90% of students meeting or exceeding standards) identified essential practices that create positive associations between educational performance and sustained educational excellence. The Center’s international thought-leaders and suite of services help schools implement these practices through four key professional development areas (see diagram below). Each area of practice includes professional development services, industry-recognized resources published by Lead+Learn Press, seminars and institutes, support through coaching, monitoring and on-site implementation, and certification of school district staff to ensure an integrated solution which meets student, teacher, and school leader needs. This model allows the work to go significantly beyond an initial seminar experience to deep implementation, resulting in sustainable success.
