Recreating Secondary Schools: Best Practices for Small Learning Communities

Successful small learning communities, career academies, and small schools share a common set of practices. This training helps district and school leadership teams redesign high schools so that all parts of the system—structures, curriculum, instruction, assessments, professional development—are aligned with preparing students for postsecondary success.

This training provides leadership teams with tools and continuous improvement routines for applying research-based best practices to designing and improving SLCs, career academies, and small schools.

Workshop participants identify gaps between current and desired practice and devise an implementation plan to support effective use of instructional strategies that have demonstrated positive effects on student learning.

Outcomes:

  • Continuous program improvement strategy
  • A plan of professional development for the whole school staff
