We are Maureen and James, the co-founders of Cor Creative Partners, a small, MA-based professional learning company committed to a culture in which everyone loves school. As longtime, local educators and authors, we support all aspects of curriculum and pedagogy, with particular focus on integrating academic, social, and emotional skill development, and building positive productive school cultures. Regardless of the focus, we create customized PD that’s authentic, engaging, inspiring, relatable, and ready to implement.
