Teacher Villages
01.
Teacher Villages are a community of teachers for the same (or similar) AP or Keystone course who learn from each other and work together to build programs that can support their students. They use the strengths of the collective to support the growth of all members at professional development sessions.
The Need
College Board and the Pennsylvania Dept. of Education have put forth valuable and challenging goals with limited support on how to achieve them. The assessments are only as valid as the pedagogy and resources used to prepare our students. We need each other!

Teacher Mentoring
02.
We ALL can use personalized support! Whether you are in your first year or looking to retool, Strive for Fives Coaches can also serve as Teacher Mentors. Agendas will be created to give focus, however, mentor meetings are meant to be fluid and flexible. These content-specific sessions are offered monthly and are aimed at continuing to build a strong community of teachers.
​
Mentor program fees can be paid by school districts at an annual rate.
On-Demand Supports for School Districts
03.
We welcome school districts and education foundations to personalize our Collaborative Learning Experiences for their own students. Strive for Fives can help tailor our programming to your needs and your schedule. This level of support, tied to our CLEs and OSSs, can significantly impact student growth.
