Regional Centers

 

Comprehensive school reform is most successful when schools receive intensive, on-site support from experienced educators who reside close to the schools they serve. Turning Points Regional Centers work directly with schools or districts within their region, in order to best understand the district and state requirements that these schools face.

Turning Points Regional Centers provide middle schools with extensive services that will help them transform their instructional, leadership, teaming, and decision-making practices. Regional Center staff provide on-site coaching, professional development, and technical assistance. Currently, there are eight Regional Centers in the Turning Points network.
