A partnership with the St. Cloud Area School District 742 

In December of 2017, through a Kellogg grant, the St. Cloud Area School District 742 and Class Measures began a close working relationship to address the low student achievement and rapid demographic change of two focus schools: Discovery and Talahi Elementary Schools. Within two years, both schools had transformed their classroom practices through Class Measures-guided ELOs (Effective Learning Observations) and the implementation of an effective/whole-school co-teaching model. 

Children of Promise Preparatory Charter School (COPPA) is a K-8 school in Inglewood Unified School District in Los Angeles, California. The school has a student body of around 325 students, with 70% African American and 30% Latino. Ninety three percent of students are from low-income families (eligible for free or reduced-price lunch).  

Bringing about optimized learning environments through a customized program of holistic, collaborative school reviews – how the Alabama State Dept of Education ‘cut to the chase’ when it came to developing their strategies for improvement.
