The Achievement Coaches for Literacy are teachers who have both content area and instructional expertise. The Achievement Coaches will work with the Assistant Superintendent and Building Principal(s) to promote best instructional practices to increase student achievement across individual classrooms, grade levels, and school wide. Priorities include analysis of data to identify classrooms with specific needs or targets for increased achievement, meeting with teachers to determine areas for professional growth, modeling lessons, supporting classroom instruction, and coaching teachers one‑on‑one.

The Achievement Coaches will work as a member of the district’s Teaching & Learning Team to develop coherence across the district in teacher ability to provide instruction that (1) establishes high expectations for all students and is academically rigorous, (2) is based on district core curriculum and state standards, (3) aligns to the learning needs of diverse learners, and (4) enhances student sense of engagement in and ownership of learning.
