All Students Deserve a Quality Education
All Students Deserve a Quality Education
When we come together to tackle complex educational problems, great things can happen for our students.
We are an educator-led team dedicated to helping teachers, administrators and school district officials advance education and better prepare students for college, career, and life.
Our partnership with the New Hampshire Learning Initiative is instrumental to our path towards active, engaged, and innovative student-centered learning. We are grateful to work with people who understand the unique strengths and challenges of our K-8 school and assist us in creating a plan that works for our school district.
I have walked the assessment journey for many years having worn many hats. The work that we have done with NHLI on PACE tasks has been some of the most professionally rewarding work I've done thus far. The opportunity to collaborate with colleagues from other districts to co-construct meaningful and authentic performance assessments makes us ALL better. And it's the right thing to do for students.
