School Partnerships… what they can look like
A multi-year coaching partnership
I have been working with Orange Lutheran High School’s Missions team for several years to create and sustain a curriculum rooted in service, action, and well-being.
PD, strategic planning, and on-site workshops
Partnering with the American Community School of Abu Dhabi has involved many aspects of coaching, facilitating professional learning, and supporting leaders in creating strategic plans for service learning and storytelling.
Helping a School Deepen its Service Learning Approach
When I had an opportunity to visit Schutz American School in Alexandria, Egypt, I was excited to collaborate with teachers, students, and the Board about service learning approaches and mindsets to fulfill the school mission.
"Servant, leader, honest, passionate, hard-working and collaborative are some of the words that come to mind in describing LeeAnne. She opens her heart and hands to people from all walks of life. She works alongside students and co-workers in order to produce excellence. LeeAnne doesn’t just work this way, she lives this way."
