Supporting Schools With Next Steps
Overview
Following Design Experience 1, your district transformation team will play a key role in supporting school teams as they transition into post-work and prepare for what’s ahead. In this step, you will check in with each school-based lead to offer encouragement, identify potential challenges, and coordinate any needed support. You will also align with the facilitation partner to ensure clarity around school progress, next steps, and communication flow.
This is an opportunity for you to help maintain momentum, surface and clear hurdles, and reinforce key priorities as teams begin to deepen their community engagement and prepare for inspiration visits.
