Strong school systems begin with smart leadership.

School and District-based consulting that helps schools and other educational leaders transform research into results.

The Stevenson Consulting Approach

Every school has access to more ideas than it knows how to organize. Frameworks stack up. Data reports multiply. New initiatives roll in with big promises and complicated instructions.

What leaders really need is clarity.

Get Started

Big ideas, real impact.

Stevenson Consulting partners directly with administrators, superintendents, and instructional coaches to build practical systems that improve student learning and strengthen leadership capacity. My primary passion is early literacy implementation, but my expertise reaches far beyond that single service line.

With experience as a teacher, principal, and superintendent in Idaho, I serve educational leaders through a broad range of supports:

  • Individual and small-group coaching that develops communication strategies, parent partnerships, conflict resolution, time management, and relationship-building skills for administrators at every career stage.

  • I help districts make sense of their academic data, organizational structures, and improvement plans so decisions become aligned and strategic instead of reactive.

  • Guidance in designing comprehensive schoolwide improvement efforts, implementation roadmaps, and progress-monitoring tools that turn long-term goals into measurable outcomes.

  • Professional learning sessions that help leaders evaluate instructional practices, develop administrators, and sustain change over time.

  • Needs assessments, administrator training, and coaching cycles that help elementary schools convert reading science into daily classroom practice.

  • I am always willing to jump in a Discovery call with you to see how my expertise may be tailored to fit your individual school or district needs.

Good systems create confident teachers.
Confident teachers create strong readers.
Strong readers change everything.

Instead of handing you another program, I help you strengthen the structures you already have so instruction becomes more intentional, more coherent, and far more effective. If you don’t see something that you believe would fit your need, please set up a time to talk with me to discover how we might work together to custom tailor a learning experience.
