They also will receive grant funds to be used in part to engage ISBE and district approved learning partners to support their school improvement work. Harvard Park has chosen Catalyst for Educational Change, which will provide professional learning, training, and support in the areas of leading data-informed school improvement for principals and teacher teams as well as student and learning development though inclusion and co-teaching practices. As a result of this work, Harvard Park will have strengthened PLCs in data continuous improvement cycles for instructional change, aligned Tier 1 and 2 supports for intervention, and reinforced inclusion and co-teaching models of instruction.
