Our expertise in K-12 operations keeps districts running smoothly so you can focus on what matters most.
CESO - the Center for Effective School Operations - partners with school communities of all sizes to offer consulting, project management and staffing support across key operational areas. Our strength is the seamless integration of all operational areas with multiple levels of support. We bring you the best options to drive greater impact in your district by optimizing daily operations and implementing long-term success.
Your district has unique needs. CESO's school operations assessments deliver customized solutions to fit those needs.
Our proactive team solves complex challenges using your input, our analytical frameworks, and the space to rethink what's possible. You get a comprehensive understanding of your current processes and structures plus an action plan to keep what works and improve what doesn't.
Discovery is an introduction between your team and ours. We meet to learn about your goals, challenges, and resources. We also review the assessment process and answer questions.
We match the information shared by your team during interviews with our expertise to evaluate your current operations and develop customized recommendations for improvement.
Every CESO operations assessment includes a report with our key findings, a health score for your current operations, and an action plan prioritized into Do Now, Do Soon, and Do Later categories.
We can do the work for you or put the plan into your team's capable hands when it comes time for implementation. Either way - or a blend of both - you can count on a customized plan for your school community.
CESO's holistic approach and emphasis on collaboration make them an invaluable partner in shaping a bright future for our school district.
As a superintendent in need of timely and difficult communications, I turned to CESO for help. They not only helped with the communications, they helped me feel grounded, cared for, and not alone. Their ability to craft effective communications is only part of their work; they are also good at building relationships and a family-like environment with their clients.
Working with CESO has given me a broader perspective of the issues I’m facing in my district and a way to effectively evaluate problems while developing solutions - helping me develop as a leader not only for our teachers but also for our community. The team's insights on board relations and development have allowed me to think about my long range plans for our district.
Coaching conversations with CESO always seem to hit at just the right time when I need to get my head out of the weeds to think about the things that energize me about my work. The advice and perspective shared have been so helpful!
In my superintendent role, I knew that communications with families and staff was a huge priority. I wanted to be as transparent as possible with our stakeholders, and knew I could not do that all on my own. I contacted CESO for support and we have had a strong partnership ever since. The CESO team helps our district with all things communication support and I am so grateful for their work and the impact they have had in my district.
CESO Communications is an essential part of our success at GFW Public Schools. Together, we have created a strong two-way communication system that serves multiple languages; supports families, develops stronger partnerships with our community, and tells our story. Having their team partner with us in communications has helped to transform our district's day-to-day operations, election communications, and getting the word out about positive things happening in our schools!"
