OUR STORY

The FIRST Education Instructional Coaching Center was founded by Coaches and is focused on the unique learning needs of Instructional Coaches and those who lead Coaching programs. We believe that instructional coaching must be designed to meet the needs of the school, the teacher, and the students who will benefit from the work. This means that coaches must be knowledgeable about a variety of coaching approaches and models and know how to determine which method will work best at any given time. The workshops and other supports offered through the FIRST Education Instructional Coaching Center are designed to strengthen and deepen coaches' understanding and skills on a theoretical and practical level.  

MISSION

The FIRST Education Instructional Coaching Center provides training, coaching, and resources to leaders and coaches so that instruction in partner districts is systemically aligned and intentionally designed to meet the needs of all learners.

VISION

We will develop coaches and leaders who have confidence in their skills, and who implement coaching practices that allow all students to experience high levels of growth and to achieve at high levels
