Today’s professional development in schools often focuses on what teachers can do for students, but rarely on what educators can do for themselves and each other to invigorate their passion for teaching. Recognizing this gap, High 5 has designed a distinct professional learning experience centered on rejuvenation, reflection, and building meaningful connections – — all grounded in the principles of adventure education and social emotional learning
Since 2022, our long-term professional learning series has been successfully implemented annually in the SAU29 School District. Educators and schools alike have experienced tangible benefits, including:
High 5 and its Professional Learning Cohort builds a foundation of trust, allows for self exploration and then supports growth. The cohort experience builds confidence in that we are not alone in our struggles and encourages us to bring our best every day knowing that others understand and will be there for us. I have watched this organization grow and expand over the years in the right direction. Slow, steady, consistent support is the hallmark of High 5. Without them I cannot accurately say where I would be as a human and as an education professional.
