The Carbon School District will get help this summer from a consulting group already familiar with the district.
Ed Direction, the same group helping Mont Harmon with its school turn-around project this year, will spend three days with the district’s leadership teams (up to 10 people from each school, each one representing a different grade level or department) this summer.
Ed Direction will then return for four days during the school year and help the district to develop, analyze and adjust 60-day improvement plans. Every 60 days the group will come back and walk schools through the next steps in the process. The improvement plans will all be based on data and will include some very specific things schools and teachers must do to reach specific student learning goals.
The administration will learn reproducible information, meaning it can be used after the consultants have done their job.
The consultants will spend time with every teacher in the district.
In between they will continue to work with the leadership teams.
“I’ve worked with Ed Direction in the past, in fact for several years,” said Superintendent Lance Hatch.
Hatch says the group is very successful and due to that success, demand for their services is high.
“We have been working for the last couple of months to see what it would take to bring them here.”
