aligned
placed in a correct position; supported; together in agreement
School leaders and educators understand the importance of alignment in teaching and learning-we are in a constant cycle of aligning standards, curriculum, instruction and assessment-all while considering mission, vision, and values.
But, are we authentically applying an aligned mindset to how we professionally develop educators?
We help you do just that.
Hi. I’m Michaela.
