Comprehensive School Improvement

​

H&S Leadership Consulting, LLC approaches school improvement with a customized, research-based focus for each individual school. Whether a school is facing sanctions or striving to reach its full potential, we partner with leaders, instructional staff, and teachers to improve student outcomes, strengthen community engagement, and build a healthy school culture. Central to our work is the integration of science-based literacy practices, aligned curriculum, brain-based instructional strategies, and effective assessment systems to ensure every student has the opportunity to succeed.

​

Our process begins with a comprehensive data review with building leadership and classroom visits to examine current practices, instructional routines, and student engagement. Together with leadership teams, we identify high-leverage areas that will yield the greatest progress toward school goals. Using structural tension charts, ongoing remote coaching, and job-embedded professional development, we support leaders and instructional staff in implementing evidence-based curriculum, brain-informed teaching practices, and engaging instructional strategies. Regular classroom walkthroughs and review of assessment data ensure progress is tracked, strengths are reinforced, and adjustments are made as needed.

​

Through this targeted support, building leaders and instructional staff develop the habits and practices that lead to higher student achievement, stronger literacy outcomes, and increased staff satisfaction. By combining curriculum alignment, research-based instructional methods, student engagement strategies, and effective use of assessment data, our approach promotes sustainable school improvement while also supporting more manageable workweeks and a healthier work-life balance.
