SREB Leadership Curriculum Modules:

Using Data to Lead Change.  (Four days: 3+1)  Schools that successfully improve student achievement do so by regularly using data to guide decisions about instruction, student support and professional development.  Easy to use processes are taught and participants learn how data is a vital part of the school improvement process.

Prioritizing, Mapping and Monitoring the Curriculum.  (Four Days: 3+1)  In a high stakes testing world, this module helps schools keep their curriculum on target.  Participants will learn the benefits of prioritizing, mapping and monitoring the curriculum and more deeply understand what we want students to learn, which learning is most important, and how to know if the curriculum is being taught.

Creating a High Performance Learning Culture.  (Four days: 3+1)  Schools cannot improve when the culture does not support school improvement.  Often in the push to improve quickly, the school's culture is forgotten.  Participants will learn what culture is and why it must be cultivated; what roles leaders play in growing the culture; and what tools and strategies are available to help leaders foster a culture that supports improvement, high expectations and the well-being of students.
