Keeping the Promise of Achievement for All!

Promise Informed Schools is an innovative educational initiative founded by The Promise Group, dedicated to empowering schools with research-based strategies and systems that promote academic excellence and well-being. By integrating Appreciative Inquiry, we focus on identifying strengths, fostering a positive school culture, and creating solutions that build on what’s already working.

 

Our approach equips educators and leaders to cultivate high-performance environments where every student thrives by:

 

• Enhancing Existing Systems using PI
  PI Schools custom frameworks and systems seamlessly lay over existing systems which enhance the efforts of school leaders, faculty and staff in their daily aim to ensure high performance outcomes.  By applying PI systems and practices, participating principals can establish and maintain conditions within the school that are conducive to enhanced performance and achievement results.  
   

• Assemblying School Employees into Teams of Value-Added Collaborators through a PI Lens
  The program guides new learning and related applications that implement routines and systems based on researched best practices that help schools set and meet their desired goals.   PI Schools assemble teams of those working within the school to work together as solution driven collaborators.  They build protections around risks that optimize instructional opportunities, implement appreciative language and communication practices that elevate the school climate and culture experience, and prioritize around a focus that addresses teacher wellness which is a direct measure of student success. 
   

• Consultatively Working with School Principals Who Lead with Vision and PI
  PI trainers and coaches work consultatively in partnership with the school principal to co-author plans that establish benchmarks and goals based on the mission and vision of the school.  The principal strategically assembles their faculty and staff to be a like-minded collective trained and guided by the PI systems and practices to work on behalf of meeting the set benchmarks and goals and further keep the promise of achievement for all.
