CULTIVATING STRENGTHS We inspire educators to continuously reflect and build on their strengths, championing the idea that improvement in growth areas increases when we leverage areas of strength first. |
CULTURALLY RELEVANT PEDAGOGY We advocate for educators to cultivate culturally responsive and sustaining spaces for learning, fostering academic, social, and emotional success for students. |
CYCLES OF INQUIRY We facilitate an inquiry process in which educators identify challenges, pose questions, implement interventions, and monitor for improvements. Drawing on the work of C.S. Pierce, we believe it is through this quest for understanding that we build a learning community, helping us evolve to meet the ever-changing needs of our partners. |
COMMUNITIES OF PRACTICE An approach to discourse and decision-making that honors individual perspectives while fostering the collective construction of shared knowledge as educators work toward a common goal. |
CONTEXTUALIZED PRACTICE Each partner, project, and individual is unique — we leverage collaborative conversations and planning to ensure that all of our projects are tailored to the specific culture, context, and goals of our partners. |
CRITICAL REFLECTION Prioritizing metacognition, gaining self-awareness, and critically reflecting on successes and missteps provides opportunities for continuous improvement in one’s practice. |
