Phase Three – Lift Off

The first years of a charter school term establish its foundation for success. We can help you create policies, systems and practices to ensure that your school opens and operates successfully.

Our services to “early-stage” charter schools include:

  • Board development and support in governance, including participation in Board meetings with recommendations to improve performance of the Board and the school
  • Guidance and support in establishing a school-wide data culture in which all administrators, teachers and other instructional staff are empowered and supported in using a variety of student data to inform and improve instruction
  • Support in developing and implementing effective Principal and Teacher evaluation systems and aligning evaluation with professional development and human capital management
  • Review and refinement of curricula and assessments to improve student outcomes
  • Identification and support in implementing “best practices” in recruiting students (including special student populations)
  • Financial management, financial reporting and grant development
  • Ongoing compliance monitoring and adjusting programs and practices to comply with relevant laws, regulations and charter obligations
