Before the school year commences, PD Coaches will meet with school administrators to ascertain all of the necessary scheduling requirements of the school and to mutually plan regular meeting times, initial activities, mini-workshop possibilities and all other details that will be designed to allow the Catapult Learning Coach's role within the school to be as seamless and meaningful as possible.
