PEAK Successes
Over the last two decades, we have worked with teachers, schools, and districts from over 20 states to effect measurable and continuous gains in student achievement.
“There is nothing else out there as effective. 100% of our staff is progressing in the PEAK model.”
Chris Reitan, Superintendent, Galena City Schools, Galena, AK
I have been a proponent of PEAK strategies since the first time I was introduced to them over 6 years ago. At the time I was a curriculum coordinator serving over 6 middle schools. Our team immediately began to provide support to teachers and to promote the use and training whenever possible. Now serving as a principal, I have been eager to bring PEAK to my school for several years. This year I was finally able to do that.
Some testimonies from my staff:
“Thank you for consistently influencing a shift in teacher perspective and action to better meet the needs of every student.”
“It is amazing that we covered 45 easy to use strategies that will directly impact student learning.”
“I realized how many things I was doing that really aren’t effective for learning to take place, it is time to change.”
“I realized how important it is to make the classroom a safe and comfortable space for all students.”
“Non-linguistic responses are awesome!”
“I thoroughly enjoyed my session. After 16 years of teaching, my eyes are open to new and improved ideas.”
Rachel Corn, Principal, Cochrane Middle School, Charlotte, NC
“This institute is the absolute best PD I have been a part of. I’m seeing results I used to dream about, and every time I reconnect, I get even more I can use!”
Matt Morton, Teacher, Starr Elementary School, Plainwell, MI
“Leading for Excellence has changed how we lead in our district! The process to effective leadership following the strategies is invigorating, exciting, and challenging. Our leadership team has been inspired to dig deep, critically think, engage positively with our staff, and model expectations. In 15 years, I have never been part of leadership professional development more effective!”
Jan Bayer, Assistant Superintendent, Kellogg School District #391, Kellogg, Idaho
“Steve excels when it comes to connecting people to ideas. His ability to articulate, demonstrate, and coordinate improvement initiatives is exemplary. He is a leader of leaders and teacher of leaders.”
STEVE EDWARDS, SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS, MUSKEGON REETHS-PUFFER SCHOOLS
