2. What questions must you ask before determining a new coaching model or program?
3. What are the strengths of the staff and how can these strengths be utilized in your coaching plan?
4. In what areas will teachers need the most support? How will you determine these areas of need?
5. How should goals for student learning be determined? How should those goals be addressed?
Part 3:
