Principal Coaching

A great coach is integral to thriving in the role of school leader- especially in those first few years.  We provide tailored one-on-one coaching for principals to support them in setting and achieving their academic, adult culture and student experience goals. Thrive Education Collective’s “Principal Coaching” is a year-long partnership that leverages competency based coaching and data driven leadership to build principal skill as people and systems leaders. 

Thrive Principal Coaches have all been principal themselves, with a track-record of ABSOLUTE achievement across the key indicators of school health: academic results and a culture of connection and focus for students and adults alike.

Thrive provides customized supports to organizations looking to lead change and drive academic results. Contact us for a free consultation with our team.

Excellent professional development can dramatically and rapidly elevate the quality of teaching and learning…AND, we know that strategically designed, context and goal-specific staff development requires capacity and exceptional skill.

Too often, organizations find they are spending significant time and money on developing their staff while getting limited results. We can help.  Through our combined decades of experience in designing and delivering high impact professional development, we have codified an approach to professional development scope and sequence design, build, and delivery grounded in research-backed pedagogy and first hand experience on how adults learn best.

Academic Strategy Design and implementation

With the right strategy, an aligned team, and structures in place that support disciplined execution, all schools and districts can achieve their academic goals. 

We partner with system and school leaders who are ready to lead their teams to breakthrough results in Mathematics and ELA.  Our “Academic Impact Coaching Program” is a long term partnership that provides a proven and systematic approach to the design and execution of a winning academic strategy.  

Best-in-class coaches with a track record of OUTSTANDING results bring deep expertise to their shoulder to shoulder partnership with a strategy leader and key stake-holders in your organization. 

Hear from our partners

  • "Our work with Thrive this year in strategic planning has helped us to establish a strong vision of excellence that we will employ each year… The partnership has also allowed us to provide differentiated professional development to our math teachers and double the development opportunities we provide for our teachers who are teaching the priority content this year. "

    STEM Achievement Manager, KIPP New Orleans

  • "We not only worked collaboratively to develop and present a coherent trajectory of learning through a series of PDs, I felt confident in delivering PD even without my co-collaborator's presence. In short, through Thrive, not only was the content build-out, but through effective coaching, my own agency was as well!"

    Instructional Leader, DC International

  • "I appreciate the wrap-around support of the model - from building the strategy to ongoing support/data analysis to on the ground coaching - the model ensures we have clarity of where we are going and where we stand against that vision at all times. There are clear metrics to tell us if we are successful at any given point."
