Technical Assistance

When you need help turning best practices into action, you won't find a better partner than Foundations.

For years, we've provided technical assistance to help schools and programs just like yours take their work to the next level. We partner with school districts, schools, community organizations, and afterschool networks to support:

• Academics:
  

  Improving student performance with program assessments, instructional coaching and mentoring, afterschool programming, materials to support English Language Learners, school-based technology, curriculum enhancement, and other offerings

• Student Services:
  

  Helping ensure children and youth have effective, safe, and healthy learning environments that prepare them to succeed in school and beyond

• Operations:

  Enhancing the performance of schools and organizations via leadership development, data analysis, school safety and security, financial and administrative guidance, and many other services

• Parent and Community Involvement:

  Fostering and strengthening partnerships with those who significantly influence the lives of all children and youth through parent engagement workshops, “Lights On” events that bring families and community members together around educational games, community forums, as well as other innovative strategies to engage parents and communities in education

In addition, dozens of founding groups and charter schools have relied on our technical assistance to secure grant funding, complete charter applications, and embark on continuous quality improvement processes.

As always, our technical assistance is grounded in vast experience and practice. The knowledge we gain by operating educational initiatives and managing a select number of schools guides our work.
