Assessment Design

Our staff includes a Certified Trainer who can help teams of teachers design and evaluate their Common Formative Assessments. We can also consult with your administrators on the development of grade-level assessment calendars and portfolios for your building.

Data-Driven Decision Making

Northside Consulting has years of experience working with grade-level teams, departments, school climate committees, interventionists, and building data teams, using data of all types to inform their practice. Let us help you plan using the data of your choice.

Learning Centers

We believe that children learn best when they can be actively engaged, in many ways, with new information. We would love to work with individual classroom teachers and grade-level teams to help them set up learning centers or maximize the educational impact of their existing centers and work stations.

Examining Student Work

We have a Certified Critical Friends Group Coach that can teach teams protocols for looking at, and learning from, student work, adult dilemmas and school plans. Let us help you with your reflective practice.

Needs Assessment

Sometimes, you don't know what you really need, just that you need it! Ask about our 6-day, Needs Assessment Series. We will combine team observations, classroom walkthroughs, staff and student interviews and analysis of your current structures, curriculum and practices to help leadership teams develop a strategic plan for your school.
