Curriculum Coaches

Curriculum coaches work with teachers in a variety of ways. An essential component is providing professional learning experiences on an ongoing basis with teachers as both individuals and teams. Curriculum coaches model lessons, set student goals with teachers, work with Professional Learning Communities, assist with students individually and in small groups, co-teach, and provide feedback to teachers.

An integral part of the role is facilitating professional development both with and for teaching staff. Curriculum Coaches plan and present professional development in collaboration with school administration. Additionally, Curriculum Coaches work collaboratively to ensure vertical alignment, review curriculum expectations, and discuss instructional strategies and practices to improve student outcomes. We offer one another insight and knowledge to best meet the needs of our individual teachers.
