As you reflect on your work as instructional coaches this past year, we hope you recognize that every positive change, even a small one, is a reason to celebrate. Remember, everyone wants change; you go first! Although student achievement is not the only measure to consider, it certainly is the one that our key stakeholders look for first.  So, what do we do about changing that philosophy? Not much... but what we can do is work towards establishing a culture of change that reflects several ways in which student achievement is influenced.
