AIR's researchers have investigated school leadership and supported practitioners to apply best practices to improve state policy, district programs, and school practices aimed at developing and retaining effective leaders. The District and School Improvement Center applies that research through a competency-based coaching model to provide shoulder to shoulder support to coach district leadership and develop effective school leadership teams.
