Recruiting and retaining outstanding school leaders is key to our success. Partnership school leaders receive intensive support and coaching that goes beyond what the District provides, including year-round professional development that is aligned for principals and assistant principals. We provide opportunities for leaders across our network of schools to collaborate and share best practices to unstick difficult problems around staffing, facilities, and budgeting. We also provide additional operations support and advocacy to help our schools make the most of their dollars and maximize services for students.

"As a Partnership Leader, I am able to use innovative, student-centered strategies and culturally relevant practices to promote student success. I am also able to build capacity in my administration and teacher leadership teams by providing them with the necessary supports to continue their professional development and growth as community educational leaders."

School-based coaches are essential to the Partnership’s mission of improving learning and academic achievement for students in our communities. Coaches partner with teachers and administrators at one of our 20 schools in a systematic, data-informed way, ultimately building a culture of support and collaboration at each school site. Coach positions are perfect for teachers with several years of experience looking for a new challenge, teachers who want to move into a leadership role, and administrators who desire to be closer to teaching. The Partnership is committed to investing in our staff's continuous growth and development, and joining our team as a school-based Coach will allow you to collaborate with – and be supported by – a group of other like-minded, passionate educators.
