TIDES SERVICES
School systems across the country are striving to implement challenging standards to meet the needs of today’s diverse learners. TIDES helps districts and schools achieve Common Core State Standards implementation goals. Through its evidenced-based approach, TIDES supports educators, school boards, and parents as learners and leaders to establish a united and clear focus for the future. We assist in analyzing mixed data sets to customize services and optimize benefits for students and staff. Our institutes and coaching enhance team building and leadership, change processes, content knowledge and pedagogical skills.
TIDES offers two to four day institutes and then provides follow-up support to teams at their site, customizing coaching to their specific needs. TIDES also works directly with individual schools, for example in a turnaround process or to develop math and writing expertise across all grade levels. Our broad range of services invites all shareholders to collaboratively design for a sustainable future.
