1. Blueprint for Success- Train the Trainer Curriculum Design

Program: RPDC - Southeast

Location: 1 Southeast Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship (Cape Girardeau, MO) [map]

Dates: 7/16/2024 to 9/22/2025

An additional session #1 has been added on August 7. Districts who wish to participate, but missed the first session in July are welcome to join by attending this session in August.

This seven session series spans a little over one school year- from July 2024 to September 2025. During this time, we will train your curriculum leaders to help teachers write curriculum in all subject areas, K-12. We will also provide them with the necessary templates to organize the curriculum. After each session, attendees will go back and work with teachers to complete the work that was discussed in that session. For that reason, districts should send curriculum directors, instructional coaches, and administrators. As the curriculum will be built online, having at least one staff member who is good with technology will also be important. Districts should send two to four people. Each session will cover a different aspect of the the curriculum process, so attendance at each session will be imperative. Our goal is that attendees will have the knowledge and skills to help their teachers write a complete curriculum by September 2025.

MTDS Instructional Coach Academy is a yearlong professional learning program designed to support and develop instructional coaches as leaders of learning in their schools and districts. Grounded in the work of John Antonetti and other coaching frameworks, this academy equips coaches with practical tools and strategies to elevate teaching and learning through relationship-building, reflective dialogue, and systems-thinking.

Throughout the academy, participants will explore key topics such as defining their role, navigating influence, supporting teacher-student relationships, fostering critical thinking and engagement, and designing systems for continuous instructional improvement. Coaches will engage in collaborative inquiry and reflective goal-setting to refine their practice and expand their impact.

Unlike Foundations of Coaching and Mentoring, which is tailored to teacher mentors supporting new educators, Instructional Coach Academy focuses specifically on the distinct responsibilities and opportunities of instructional coaches working with teachers across all experience levels. This program is designed for those who guide professional practice, influence school culture, and lead instructional growth without formal evaluative authority.

By the end of the academy, participants will leave with a clear, actionable coaching plan, strategies for navigating complex conversations, and a deeper understanding of how to support effective, equitable teaching and learning in their schools.

For the greatest impact, schools are encouraged to enroll teachers in the companion program, Teacher Academy, allowing instructional coaches and teachers to learn alongside one another and collaborate during the state meeting with John Antonetti.

In this three-part session, educators will learn how to effectively monitor IEP goals using targeted data collection and progress monitoring strategies. Participants will explore how to write and evaluate SMART goals, collect and organize data efficiently, analyze trendlines, and use that data to inform instructional decisions. The sessions will emphasize practical tools and real-world applications for adjusting academic and behavioral supports based on student progress. By the end of the series, educators will be equipped to make data-driven decisions that improve outcomes and ensure IEP goals are more than just compliance-they're a pathway to student success.
