FAIRFIELD, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
Total School Solutions (TSS) and Springboard Schools are pleased to announce an
exciting new partnership in the work to support and improve Program Improvement
districts. Springboard and Total School Solutions will combine efforts and
provide joint District Assistance and Intervention Teams (DAIT). This brings the
two industry leaders together in providing highest quality services to school
districts and County Offices of Education needing DAIT support, efforts and
reforms to improve student achievement.
Springboard Schools has become synonymous with research-based best practices in
curriculum and instruction; inquiry-based continuous improvement and leadership
development models. Total School Solutions provides high quality services in
virtually every aspect of school and district operations; and offers practical,
supportive solutions in moving districts toward enhanced performance and
success.
By pooling their professional resources, the two firms will have one of the
largest groups of recognized and successful leaders in the educational field
working together to directly support schools and districts.
"This is a very exciting partnership, and one that holds the promise of fully
and comprehensively meeting the needs of DAIT districts. Now districts can
choose to work with a DAIT team that will provide the best possible support in
every one of the DAIT standard areas: Instruction (with focus on your EL
students and students with disabilities), Parent Outreach, Human Resources,
Fiscal Resources, Governance, etc. This approach has the potential to make the
great services already offered by these two organizations even better," said
Merrill Vargo, Executive Director of Springboard.
"In the world of DAIT and Program Improvement, this is a real game-changer,"
added Tahir Ahad, President of Total School Solutions. "PI districts in
California have a real choice in obtaining high quality support-this is the
level and breadth of support that was envisioned when DAIT was originally
created."
Brett McFadden, Management Services Executive with Association of California
School Administrators (ACSA) said, "We are glad that these two ACSA-sponsored
organizations with a broad range of experts and specialists with extensive and
successful experience in the public school system have joined forces. They are
the logical choice as the premier DAIT provider to Program Improvement LEAs in
California."
