Core Responsibilities

  • Classroom Culture: A Coach ensures scholars are full participants in a structured, productive and safe learning environment. Coaches do this through participation, internalization of class/school culture systems, consistent routines, engaging in meaningful work, celebration of character values and a belief that one can be both warm and strict. 
  • Ambitious Content: A Coach ensures that scholars work with content that will best develop their understanding of ideas and skills essential to the course.

  • Demonstration of Learning: A Coach ensures that scholars are able to demonstrate their learning, including the mastery of rigorous course goals. To do this, teachers must know the status of each scholars’ progress towards an objective, scholars must display deep understanding through use of formal and informal assessments, scholars must monitor their own progress, and teachers must ensure scholars are on track to achieve or surpass rigorous course learning goals. 
  • Commitment to Excellence: A Coach at THA must display a commitment to their team and improving their craft. Coaches do this through collaborative relationships, remaining engaged, demonstrating ownership for shared culture, remaining solutions-oriented and embodying THA’s commitment to continual improvement.
