Consulting Services for K-12 Districts

Learner Profile Development

A great Graduate Profile can serve as a North Star for student learning and leader decision-making. I lead districts, large and small, through a proven design process that engages students, staff, families, and employer partners and produces a framework that truly reflects the community's core values and future-readiness goals.

Learner Profile Implementation

Moving a profile from the wall poster to the classroom is hard work, but it's the right work. I help districts build implementation roadmaps, tangible rollout tools (rubrics, reflection guides, and more), and K-12 demonstrations of mastery (student-led conferences, portfolios, and showcase presentations) that bring the profile to life for students.

AI in Learning

Many districts are either banning AI or pretending it doesn't exist. I help teams find the harder middle path: reasonable guardrails and clear targets for what students should learn about AI and how they should learn with AI. Let's think together about how policy development can be leveraged to engage district leaders in deeper conversations about learning, teaching, and preparing graduates with a toolkit of future-ready competencies that can survive an AI-infused future.

Project-Based Learning Training

I've been on both sides of this work — founding and teaching in an integrated, project-based academy before spending two decades leading workshops that engage educators in the project-based approach. I tailor training sessions to your team and schedule, and make sure your teachers leave with classroom-ready project plans they can use next semester.

Assessment System Development

Standardized tests can't tell a district whether its graduates can do what the learner profile promises. I help districts develop a systemic approach to learning opportunities and assessments that produce real data on learner competencies. Let's figure out the performance tasks, benchmark grade levels, and scaffolding that work best for your district.
