The Scolaris Group

We bring decades in the classroom, experience in public, private, and charter schools, and a love of learning to our work in education.  In addition to being accomplished teachers, our partners are also researchers, scholars, and teacher educators.  Each of our partners is not only familiar with the academic research we work with, we have contributed to that research.  At the same time, we know what it is like to be in the classroom, where research that is often esoteric is met with demands of day-to-day instruction.

We marry scholarship and practice.

We bring decades in the classroom, experience in public, private, and charter schools, and a love of learning to our work in education.  In addition to being accomplished teachers, our partners are also researchers, scholars, and teacher educators.  Each of our partners is not only familiar with the academic research we work with, we have contributed to that research.  At the same time, we know what it is like to be in the classroom, where research that is often esoteric is met with demands of day-to-day instruction.

We ask ourselves five questions for everything that we do:

  • Is this informed by research?

  • Does this connect to practice?

  • Do we embrace the role of the learner?

  • Is this engaging?

  • Is this relevant?

If these questions are important to you as well, let's talk about working together to make great things happen in your school or district!

 

 
 
Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself.
