What’s Working and What’s Not

Examine the systems, routines, and conditions that affect how students learn and behave. Prioritize small changes that can lead to big improvements.

Focus On What’s Working

Support teachers and leaders in recognizing and leveraging their unique strengths to drive meaningful change.

Use Data That Matters

Gather clear, useful information about student learning and school performance. Use it to set goals, make decisions, and track progress.

Apply Research Locally

Combine research with practical steps that fit your school’s needs. Develop solutions that lead to long-term success, not just quick fixes.

Hone Skills That Last

Train staff and leaders so they can support and evaluate improvement efforts. Set up ways for people to learn and work together across your school or district.

Create Strong Support Teams

Set up coaching and support teams that help schools carry out changes effectively. Ensure PLNs and PLCs have time, tools, and training to guide long-term improvement.

College and Career Readiness

Assess and enhance pathways to prepare students for life after graduation. Strengthen academic programs and behavior supports to help all students succeed.

Review, Reflect, Repeat

Put routines in place that help schools regularly review results, learn from experience, and adjust strategies to keep improving student outcomes.

What Clients Are Saying

In education, we are about working with people; Marzano Research recognizes that not every solution fits every school, and they have assisted us in creating “our” system with a focus on our people and students.

Superintendent

I learned that we have a lot of work to do within our district but I am so hopeful that there are better days ahead. I am so appreciative that we are getting the help and guidance our district needs.
