We partnered with a set of districts to do the deep work required to answer the question, “What is the best of what we know about supporting unfinished learning in each content area?”

If you’re looking for a partner that’s going to be a part of your school family and believe that all kids can learn, Instruction Partners is definitely a partnership you should invest in.

This is exactly what we need. We need to know what questions to ask to get to the right answers—you have the national perspective, and we need thought partners like you right now.

Instruction Partners is set apart by their relationship building. They are there for us whenever we need them. They build upon our strengths and listen to our voice. They don’t tell us what to do, they work with us to build our capacity.
