Even high-performing schools struggle with the capacity to take on the labor-intensive work with Title and IDEA funds for professional development and school improvement. By developing a systems approach to collaboration, districts, schools, and their leaders can help every student to reach education targets.


With experience and understanding of the Comprehensive Continuous Improvement Plan (CCIP) in Ohio, VanHorn Educational Consultants can help districts ensure use of their Title funds is strategic, thoughtful, and effective. We can help districts move beyond compliance, and into meaningful work.
