Engaging Practitioners

Engaging teachers, administrators, and school and district staff in school improvement efforts is as important as engaging community stakeholders external to the district. People who work in schools have the greatest impact on reform strategy.

Engaging practitioners is a critical step in strengthening teaching and student learning. Local education funds provide professional development to practitioners and broker school-community partnerships that create new tools and resources for educators. Working directly with educators is the best way for intermediary organizations to build understanding of the work of schools and to build LEF credibility with educators and with the external community.
