Principals have repeatedly shared that time with Pam has shifted their mindsets about how to coach teacher practice and has sharpened their instructional leadership. Pam’s training is building the professional capacity of our leaders to improve the instructional core.
What sets Pam apart is her enthusiasm and ability to respond the uniqueness of our district context and to collaborate with us to create a professional development plan that we all own together. Pam is not a vendor or a trainer; she is an invested member of our team.

Pam provides ROI² and is extremely well received. Educators appreciate her enthusiasm, determination, and knowledge. She asks great questions, listens attentively, and provides meaningful and wisdom-filled answers. Pam’s commitment to improvement creates an environment that cultivates these same properties in others.

Our District had the pleasure of working with Pam to create a new teacher evaluation instrument. Collaboration was at the heart of the process, as we looked to create an evaluation tool that honored the work of our teachers while measuring their practice in a meaningful way. Pam is a master facilitator and was able to put all stakeholders at ease in a situation that had the potential to be adversarial.

As a result of this work, our District is able to have more effective conversations with faculty to encourage professional growth, ultimately resulting in a better classroom experience for both students and teachers. If you are considering whether or not to work with Pam, don’t hesitate. We would welcome her back to our District in a heartbeat.
