• We are inspired by the belief that a high quality education is the best way to improve the world in which we live. • The global economy of today requires students to go beyond earning a high school diploma -- they must now graduate with the knowledge and skills needed to compete globally for careers and higher education opportunities. In order to achieve this, all students must be provided with excellent teachers, excellent school leaders, and a culture of high expectations that focuses on continuous improvement, growth, and achievement. • Bowen & Associates supports organizations and institutions that share these beliefs by helping them overcome the challenges that too often get in the way: low expectations, a lack of accountability, poor planning, limited capacity, system inflexibility, and decisions based on what makes adults most comfortable, not what is best for children. We offer services to address the challenges and transform them into successes. • Strategic Planning: Strategic Plan Development and Implementation, School Improvement Plan Development and Implementation, Plan Accountability Process Monitoring, Branding & Logo Design, Social Media Design & Implementation • Alternative Learning Design & Implementation: Non-traditional Learning, Virtual Learning, Blended Learning • Professional Development: Street-gang awareness and assessment, Cultural awareness and assessment, Technology Integration, School wide management and discipline assessment, Curriculum Development & Mapping, Social Media Development & Public Relations • Educator Recruitment & Retention: Administrator Searches & Recruitment, Teacher Searches & Recruitment, Staff Searches & Recruitment, Leadership Development, Teacher Coaching & Development, International Teacher Coaching & Development • Individual Services: Resume / Curriculum Vitae Development, Cover Letter Development, Electronic Portfolio Development, Document Editing, Interview Coaching, Personal Branding, Mentoring Show less
