Collaborative Partner Results

Working with Big Rock Educational Services (BRES) has been the stepping stone that was needed to elevate student achievement and ensure teacher effectiveness in the classroom. The support provided by BRES coach Leetha-Nicole Harper has helped me, as an instructional leader, to target our highest leverage areas of growth and create a plan to build upon our strengths. The consistent feedback and insightful meetings made it possible to implement the plan and process effectively.

This past school year I had the privilege of being introduced to Big Rock Educational Services (BRES). Partnering with BRES coach Leetha-Nicole Harper and the BRES team has really helped me to grow as an instructional leader. Leetha-Nicole’s support was targeted and specific. She worked patiently and diligently to ensure the BRES process was implemented with fidelity in order to maximize success. I am looking forward to continuing our journey with BRES and the growth of our students’ success!

BRES is one of the best PDs I have ever attended, and the work we did together at our school this year allowed our campus culture and systems to improve tremendously. The research-based practices we were taught helped bring the consistency and proactive planning our campus needed to be successful. Our students were more engaged in our classrooms, and learning was constantly occurring on campus. Our BRES coach Sharon Duplantier was amazing and so helpful. Her presence really helped our Admin team, teachers, and staff connect and provided numerous opportunities for us to give great feedback and coaching to our team. We also developed practices and plans for PLCs that allowed us to improve rigor campus wide. I look forward to having BRES working with me and my staff this year, and feel that any campus would benefit partnering with this amazing company.

Partnering with BRES through our district was one of the most extraordinary things I have experienced. BRES coach Sharon Duplantier is an exceptional coach and leader who helped me structure my coaching abilities through accountable calendars and her enthusiastic persona, which strengthened my bonds with teachers and fellow administrators as they sought my guidance to develop others on campus. Her expertise and nonjudgmental ways inspire me to continue being the best coach I can be to help my campus accomplish our goals.

Thank you to my coach Leetha-Nicole who was amazing. Big Rock Educational Services provided a foundation for me and my team as we established ourselves on a new campus. BRES provided a tool for our instructional leadership team to set the tone, collect data and provide immediate feedback. BRES allowed us to use the protocol and systems in order to identify our campus gaps.
