Consulting

Consulting Services for Education Industry

Our consulting services are delivered by experienced current and retired educational administrators and teachers who bring real-world expertise from the classroom and district office. We understand the unique challenges facing educational institutions because we've lived them, providing practical, field-tested solutions grounded in actual school leadership and teaching experience. Our team of practitioners partners with K-12 schools, districts, charter schools, and independent institutions to deliver authentic support that resonates with educators and drives meaningful improvement.

Professional Development

Our professional development is designed and facilitated by veteran educators and administrators who have successfully implemented the practices they teach. Drawing from their years in classrooms and leadership roles, our consultants deliver workshops, seminars, and coaching sessions that address real challenges educators face daily. This practitioner-to-practitioner approach ensures relevant, immediately applicable learning experiences that build genuine capacity for instructional and leadership excellence.

Third Party Evaluations

Our evaluation team consists of experienced former superintendents, principals, and master teachers who bring credibility and educational insight to every assessment. These seasoned professionals understand school operations from the inside, enabling them to conduct objective evaluations of programs, personnel, and institutional effectiveness for traditional public schools, charter schools, and non-public institutions with authenticity and practical wisdom. Their extensive field experience allows them to deliver actionable findings that colleagues in education can trust and implement.

Investigations

Our investigation services are conducted by retired administrators and specially trained educators who combine investigative expertise with deep understanding of school culture and educational environments. Having navigated complex personnel situations throughout their careers, our investigators approach sensitive matters including Title IX allegations, workplace bullying, and personnel complaints with both professional rigor and educational perspective. Their experience in schools ensures investigations are thorough, fair, and conducted with appropriate sensitivity to the educational context.

Accreditation Preparation

Former principals, curriculum directors, and accreditation coordinators who have successfully led their own schools through accreditation guide institutions through preparation for NEASC and other accrediting bodies. Our consultants draw on their personal experiences navigating the self-study process, standards alignment, and accreditation visits to provide practical, step-by-step support. This peer guidance from educators who have been through the process themselves helps schools approach accreditation with confidence and achieve successful outcomes.

Coaching of Administrators

Retired superintendents, principals, and veteran administrators provide personalized coaching and mentoring, with particular expertise in supporting newly appointed leaders during their critical first years. Our coaches share hard-won wisdom from decades of educational leadership, offering guidance rooted in real experience rather than theory alone. This mentor-to-mentee relationship helps administrators develop essential competencies while learning from leaders who have successfully navigated the same challenges they now face.

Superintendent Evaluations

Experienced former superintendents and school board members facilitate customized evaluation processes that empower school boards and community stakeholders to conduct meaningful assessments of superintendent performance. Our facilitators work with each district to design evaluation frameworks tailored to local goals, community values, and specific district needs while ensuring alignment with state requirements and professional standards. Through this collaborative approach, we guide boards through gathering stakeholder input, establishing clear evaluation criteria, and conducting fair assessments that strengthen board-superintendent relationships and support district improvement.

Organizational Behavior Analysis

Experienced administrators and teacher leaders who have transformed school cultures analyze organizational dynamics, communication patterns, and systemic behaviors affecting educational institutions. Drawing from their own experiences building positive school environments and leading change initiatives, our consultants identify practical barriers to effectiveness and achievable opportunities for improvement. Their recommendations reflect what actually works in schools because they've implemented similar solutions successfully in their own educational careers.
