About the International Center for Leadership in Education

Founded in 1991, the International Center for Leadership in Education has a wealth of experience in assisting schools and districts in implementing organizational changes that translate into world-class curriculum, instruction, and assessment systems. International Center staff, Senior Consultants, Master Teachers and trainers share their expertise in the management of change, achieving high standards, curriculum development and customized solutions for our clients.

The International Center’s work is based on the premise that students are living in a world that is changing dramatically and the education system needs to adapt to those changes in order to prepare students for the world in which they will live and work. Helping to nurture the shared vision and other crucial elements of school improvement is one portion of the International Center’s work. Showcasing the results is an equally important part of what we do.

The International Center has developed an extraordinary reservoir of resources and relationships to advance school improvement. The resources were developed to help districts and schools identify specific learning goals and focus on priority standards. Each one can be used to make data-driven decisions regarding curriculum, assessment, and learning. These resources provide greater standardization of language and accountability but do not limit innovation in determining how to create higher levels of student achievement. Some examples of our resources include:

Model Schools Conference brings together highly successful educators from across the United States every June to share their stories of school and district achievements.

Curriculum Matrix provides data that schools and districts need to focus instruction on high-priority items.

Reading research and tools put emphasis on teaching reading in secondary schools.

Rigor/Relevance Framework assists educators in delivering instruction that develops strong cognitive skills and provides experience in applying those skills.

Professional development materials and consulting services offer practical strategies and techniques that teachers can put to immediate use in the classroom.

Successful Practices Network connects promising and proven schools across the United States.

Special Education Institute brings national experts and best practices to districts and state education departments to help them create realistic policies and effective practices for special education students.

In addition, one of the International Center’s greatest strengths is advocacy. We are frequently called upon to establish comprehensive awareness programs for states, regions, and school districts. We believe that change will not occur in our schools until teachers, parents, students, and the general public are first convinced that substantial improvement is needed.
