Our Mission

To support the inclusion of all people in schools and communities

Lakretz Creative Support Services is dedicated to and celebrates the culture of inclusion and connectiveness in which ALL people belong, are essential members of their communities, and have the right to fully participate in every aspect of society.  Our experiences show that the full potential of a community is realized only when we focus on the gifts and capacities of each member.

Our work with schools directly supports the inclusion of students with disabilities of all colors, ethnicities, races, gender identities and expressions, nations of origin, languages spoken, religions, sexual orientations and beliefs.

OUR PROCESS

We have learned how to optimize professional development for effectiveness and giving our clients a meaningful, rich experience. While we craft a plan individually for each client, we have developed an overall process that provides for optimal success.

Planning

Services

Schools or districts that are interested in implementing system-wide change benefit from this service. Our processes assist you in creating a shared vision, developing a time-line, and establishing concrete action steps and accountability.

Workshops

Our dynamic, hands-on workshops provide concrete, practical strategies. During each workshop, our coaches model the strategies being taught. All co-teaching workshops are co-taught. Each workshop is fun, interactive and engaging, with differentiated approaches to learning. Participants have the opportunity to plan how they will apply the strategies they learned to their classroom, content area and/or team.
