Printer-friendly version

Successful schools can coach each other to reach new heights and the mandates of No Child Left Behind. In this presentation, two Title I Newport News Public Schools will show how they used a paired-school model, peer assistance, and shared leadership to raise student performance on standardized tests. Every school has excellent practices that should be shared to enhance school efficiency and maximize student learning. This presentation will focus on the use of shared planning, paired-school walkthroughs, and paired-school data-driven staff development.

Presenters:
Brian Nichols, Principal, T. Ryland Sanford Elementary School, Newport News, VA
