STEP Up Consulting

Step up Consulting provides high-quality coaching, consulting and Missouri aligned curriculum products that will systematically impact educator beliefs and instructional practices in order to advance the learning for ALL students.

There are noticeable inequities among school districts in Missouri. Often, students in poverty do not receive an equitable education due to the lack of resources, personnel and content expertise needed to ensure a guaranteed and viable curriculum and assessment. In addition, educators currently do not have Missouri aligned curriculum specifically designed to provide them with the clarity and rigor of how the state standards will be assessed. STEP Up Consulting has reflected on these inequities and developed Missouri aligned products to combat them.

Join other rural and charter schools like Chillicothe, Putnam County, Horace Mann Laboratory School and Hogan-Prep Charter who are currently involved in the work of utilizing these products to fast track the development of high quality state aligned curriculum and assessment.
