Local Districts

Intensive training sessions begin with the district implementation team prior to engaging in training with schools. The training sessions begin in the first year of partnership.

Coaching Support Sessions for DIT Installation

As part of the District Readiness Session, District leadership engages in a high-quality selection process to choose a District Coordinator who will learn how to effectively coach their District Implementation Team (DIT). The District Coordinator, along with the Executive Leader selected to be a member of the DIT, will attend a coaching support session before each of the DIT installation training sessions.
