FAQs

To initiate the process of booking a customized professional development session, please send an email to Sellika Reese, Founder of At-School Literacy. Sellika will engage in a discussion with an instructional leader, typically an administrator, to gain a deeper understanding of your instructional challenges and professional development objectives. Following this conversation, Sellika and the school leader will collaboratively select a professional development option that best aligns with the school's requirements.

We can occasionally accommodate last-minute professional development requests, but typically, we schedule our customized PD sessions 6-12 months in advance.

Customized professional development for teachers has varying costs based on daily rate, travel, and materials. The base rate is $2,500 per day. Additional fees may apply for schools over 4 hours from Salt Lake City, UT. On-site travel expenses, including mileage, lodging, airfare, baggage, ground transportation, and parking, are pre-determined.

We offer flexible 30-day payment options for schools to process purchase orders. For on-demand professional development, payment must be received before granting access.

At-School Literacy focuses on effective teaching strategies rather than pre-packaged curriculums. Consequently, we do not mandate the purchase of any specific resources. While we may occasionally recommend tools to support teachers in their implementation efforts, these recommendations are not compulsory.

After a date is officially secured to provide professional development, At-School Literacy will draft a contract that outlines all the details. Once the contract has been signed by both parties, there is mutual agreement that the contract will not be cancelled. However, in the rare occasion that a cancellation is necessary, notification of the cancellation must occur 90 days prior to the scheduled consultation. Cancellations occurring within 90 days of the scheduled consultation may still result in full financial commitment unless At-School Literacy is able to book the date with another school.
