* Create scaffolds, routines, protocols, and templates that support gradual release and predictable, orderly classrooms.
* Integrate research-based practices (productive struggle, discourse, formative feedback) into daily instruction.
* Produce exemplars, rubrics, and playbooks that make instructional intent and operational steps clear.

Codification & Systems
* Codify teacher moves, classroom systems, and workflows that reliably promote student agency and independence.
* Document instructional models in user-friendly guides and frameworks.
* Synthesize classroom observations and data into actionable next steps for teachers.

Teacher Support
* Coach teachers in building structures that enable student ownership and responsible release of responsibility.
* Facilitate planning cycles, workshops, and modeling sessions that blend design, routines practice, and problem-solving.

* Plan, schedule, and lead site visits, walkthroughs, and observation days at LEAD.
* Design and facilitate PD sessions, virtual workshops, and follow-up coaching for adopting sites.
* Ensure partners receive resources, materials, playbooks, and aligned curriculum in a timely manner.

Ongoing Partner Management
* Maintain consistent communication with each site about progress, needs, and next steps.
* Monitor implementation through walkthroughs, check-ins, and review of artifacts.
* Provide clear feedback loops and coordinate additional support when sites need deeper coaching or resources.
* Track progress, document successes and challenges, and communicate updates internally.

Cross-Functional Coordination
* Work closely with internal teams (design, coaching, leadership) to ensure adopting sites receive coherent, high-quality support.
* Gather feedback from adopting sites to inform refinements to curriculum, systems, and playbooks.
* Support organizational scaling efforts through storytelling, data collection, and partner-facing communication.### Qualifications

* Strong skill in codifying classroom practice into clear, replicable models.
* Experience recruiting, coordinating, or supporting partner schools or programs.
* Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
* Highly organized, methodical, and consistent follow-through.
