Mason Coaching Institute for Math and Literacy

We are excited to announce the Mason Coaching Institute for Math and Literacy for 2025. Sessions will offer opportunities for specialists and coaches to explore decision making for effective coaching and discuss application in their school settings. Understanding how, when, and why to balance content and context helps coaches empower teachers to make important instructional shifts that benefit the needs of all students.

The Coaching Institute will take place at George Mason’s Science and Technology campus on Saturday, March 8th, from 8:00 am to 12:30 pm. Check-in will begin at 7:30 am, and the opening session will begin at 8:00 am. Please use this link to register or visit the Mason Coaching Institute for Math and Literacy website.

Come refresh your coaching and teacher leadership professional learning with these sessions designed especially for school-based math and literacy leaders in formal as well as informal positions. We hope to see you there!
