Services for Schools

Professional Development that teachers appreciate!

"Their instruction design process has equipped us with innovative strategies to create engaging and effective learning experiences for our students." - Jennifer Hall, Principal Lakeside High School

"Karns & Noble were professional and courteous and met staff where they were currently on their journey with the learnings taught. The feedback I received from teachers was that Karns & Noble helped them learn how to identify essential standards, and formative and summative assessments, which ultimately helped them get clear on what they wanted students to know and be able to do as a result of their teaching. I will be hiring them to come back and work with our teachers again at our next professional development."-Gabreille Hensyel, Principal Lakeside Middle School
