Instructional Coaches ensuring excellence in SDW!

We are optimistic about the level of support for our classroom teachers this school year!

For the first time, we are able to have 6 of our schools (Hillcrest, Hadfield, Banting, Whittier, Meadowbrook and Prairie) that will have a full time literacy coach in their building to ensure we can follow the literacy coaching model to fidelity as prescribed. It follows a 60-20-20 model of support. 60% coaching teachers and teams, 20% of time in small group intervention with students and 20% meetings with the Principal, planning professional learning and data analysis to help strengthen literacy in the entire school setting. 


We are encouraged by the impact this can make in the area of literacy at these schools for our students and we thank all of our instructional coaches for helping support teachers in the School District of Waukesha!
