Additional Information about True Colors

About our Teacher Training/In-Service

bullet

Our teacher in-service program focuses on teamwork, learning and fun.

We use the True Colors Personality Assessment to explore the personality types within the group and discover the strengths, values and needs of all group members.  Each person can learn about their own personality type and how it affects their relationship with students, parents, and other teachers. 

bullet

This is a fun way to invest in faculty and staff development and build a stronger relationship within your team.

 

bullet

In addition to True Colors, we also include teambuilding activities designed specifically designed for educators.  These are activities that focus on communication, cooperation, and teamwork.

bullet

Events are chosen for these training programs to ensure that all faculty and staff members can participate regardless of their physical or athletic ability.
