The purpose of the School Improvement Coach school assistance program is to improve technical assistance in mathematics to selected schools and districts to raise student achievement to meet state performance targets. The NH Department of Education (DOE) is required to provide technical assistance to schools and districts designated in need of improvement. A significant element of the Department's assistance will be delivered through the expertise of School Improvement Coaches. School Improvement Coaches will be engaged to offer workshops, provide assistance in the implementation of the New Hampshire grade-level and grade-span expectations, meet with curriculum committees, and provide content training and coaching for schools and districts as assigned.
