Supporting Schools
Schools today face dire budgets and intense pressure to improve academic outcomes. Internal and external pressures can escalate and impede progress. Every part of the education continuum is affected and all must do more with less. Finding answers can seem daunting.
The experts at Sharp Resolutions can help. We have worked with district administrations, teachers, teacher associations, principals and parents to create viable solutions to their dispute management needs. We are conflict resolution specialists that employ state-of-the-art methods to help resolve a myriad of school issues, including:
- District, School Site or Community Disputes: When relationships between school personnel or school community members become strained, mediators from Sharp Resolutions can help parties work through difficult issues and find solutions so they may re-focus their energies on shared educational goals.
- Targeted Organizational Assessments: At district central offices and school sites, educators can increase efficiency and reduce costs by having Sharp Resolution specialists conduct comprehensive evaluations and make specific recommendations for improvement. Objective assessments based on non-partisan fact finding, expert process design and plan implementation by Sharp Resolutions improve communication, outcomes and relationships in departments, clusters or local school sites.
- Meeting Facilitation: At times, no matter how talented in-house personnel is, reaching consensus and making decisions within the school site team or within the district central office is seemingly out of reach. Using proven dispute management techniques, we can address your planning, team building or problem solving needs in a timely and cost effective manner.
