About
Progression Partners!
Progression Partners, Inc. is a minority-owned business that services school districts across the nation in bridging the cultural gap. Our team of independent consultants provides support to meet the equity and inclusion initiatives and expectations.
Progression Partners consultants are specialists with decades of experience as teachers, coaches, administrators, superintendents, curriculum specialists and professors. The depth and breadth of this experience allow Progression Partners to provide support to all members of the education system – from administrators to parents – by bringing the practical, hands-on experience to consultancy work.
Our initiatives help shape decisions for K-12 education programs to ensure all stakeholders are working to improve equity in a diverse environment. The Equity Initiative and Literacy Progression Initiative are both designed to provide ongoing professional development and job-embedded implementation support to achieve the excellence of equity.
Essential factors in improving equity within an organization are to ensure diversity and inclusion are fostered through policies and practices, provide data-driven professional development, and align resources reflective of the school community.
