Join Us for Instructional Rounds: A Collaborative Inquiry Experience

July 13-17, 2026
Online workshop, including synchronous and asychronous work
$550 per participant | Limited to 30 educators

We’re excited to welcome you to Instructional Rounds, a dynamic professional-learning experience that connects teachers across schools and strengthens practice through observation, inquiry, and collaboration.

Grounded in the Instructional Rounds model from Harvard Graduate School of Education—and infused with research-based practices that strengthen listening and belonging—this weeklong online experience invites educators to step into classrooms, hone their observational senses, and build shared visions of high-quality teaching and learning within a supportive, teacher-led inquiry network.

Who Should Attend

PreK–12 teachers, academic leaders, administrators, district teams, and learning support educators across independent, public, charter, and international schools.

What You’ll Gain

  • A structured, collaborative approach to observing and analyzing classroom practice
  • A culture-building toolkit for professional inquiry
  • A cross-school network committed to improving teaching and learning
  • A customized action plan to guide your next steps
  • Connection, collaboration, community

Program Leadership

Led by Sarah Odell, Ph.D. and Byron Philhour, Ph.D., in collaboration with Nicole Brittingham Furlonge, Ph.D., Executive Director of the Klingenstein Center.
