CULTURE FIRST. BEHAVIOR SECOND.™
K–12 CLASSROOM-BUILDING + COACHING MEMBERSHIP
Build the classroom you actually WANT to teach in.
Build a classroom community where expectations are clear, students feel like they belong, and students learn to participate, contribute, and take ownership—so you spend less time managing every little thing and more time actually teaching.
Less managing. More teaching.
Immediate Access • Start Anytime • Monthly or Annual Membership
IF YOU FEEL LIKE YOU'RE DOING EVERYTHING...
Teaching Gets Exhausting When You're the Only One Making the Classroom Work.
You repeat the directions. Remind them what to do. Manage every transition. Solve every little problem. Make every decision. Correct the same behaviors again and again.
You're repeating directions you know you already gave—sometimes more than once.
A simple transition turns into five minutes of reminders, waiting, and redirecting.
Students ask you what to do next instead of using routines they could learn to follow on their own.
You're solving problems students could eventually learn to solve, discuss, or take responsibility for.
The same few students do the talking while everyone else learns they can sit back and wait.
You're correcting the same behaviors again and again instead of strengthening what students need to do differently.
That doesn't mean you need to get better at managing every little thing.
It means it's time to build a classroom where students know how to participate, contribute, and take more ownership.
WHAT CHANGES
From “I Have to Do Everything” to “We Know How Our Classroom Works.”
The goal isn't to hand your classroom over to students. You're still the teacher. You're still the leader.
Expectations are understood.
Students help build them, practice them, reflect on them, and know what meeting the standard looks like.
Routines do more of the work.
Students know how common parts of the day work without needing you to narrate every step.
More students participate.
Talk, thinking, collaboration, and contribution aren't left to the same few students.
Students contribute.
They begin helping with the work of the classroom instead of waiting for you to do everything for them.
Students solve more.
They develop the confidence and responsibility to handle more decisions, problems, and classroom needs.
You get to teach more.
Less of your energy goes to reminding, repeating, correcting, and managing every little detail.
THE BIGGER GOAL
The teacher is still the leader. But the teacher no longer has to be the only person making the classroom work.

FROM SARAH
I Don't Think Teachers Need Someone Else's Classroom.
After more than 20 years in classrooms and instructional coaching, I've watched teachers get handed programs, strategies, initiatives, and more ideas than they could ever possibly use.
What teachers need is a strong foundation for making intentional decisions about their students, their classroom, and the teacher they want to be.
THAT'S WHY TEACH LIKE A TOP TEN™ EXISTS
I won't hand you someone else's classroom.
I'll help you build yours.
We'll build from the same foundation—High Expectations, Relationships, and Student Voice—but what that looks like in your classroom should reflect your students and what they need.
Learn something. Try it. Bring back what happened. Ask questions. Make adjustments. Keep building.
The teacher is still the leader.
But the teacher doesn't have to be the only person making the classroom work.
Real Talk. Real Tools. Real Results.
WHY TEACH LIKE A TOP TEN™?
You Don't Need More Teacher Stuff to Keep Up With.
You need to know what to build, what to strengthen, and what to do when something isn't working.
NOT ANOTHER...
âś• Giant collection of resources you never get around to using.
âś• Stream of random tips, activities, and ideas with no connection between them.
âś• Membership that makes you feel behind when you miss something.
âś• Someone else's recipe for what your classroom is supposed to look like.
INSTEAD, YOU GET...
âś“ A strong classroom-building foundation you can keep coming back to.
âś“ One timely focus that helps you work on what matters now.
âś“ Live training and coaching to help you put the work into action.
âś“ A place to ask questions, make adjustments, and keep building as your classroom changes.
THE DIFFERENCE
Teach Like a Top TEN™ helps you know what to build, what to strengthen, and what to do when it gets messy.
HOW THE MEMBERSHIP WORKS
A Strong Foundation. A Focus for Right Now. Help When You Need It.
You don't join Teach Like a Top TEN™ and get handed a giant list of things to complete. You start with the foundation, work on what matters in your classroom now, and get support as you put it into practice.
START WITH THE FOUNDATION
21-Day Build Your Classroom™ Challenge
Build from the TEN Foundation™ of High Expectations, Relationships, and Student Voice as you strengthen how your classroom works.
ONE TIMELY FOCUS
Work on What Matters Now.
Each month, we'll focus on an area that makes sense for that point in the school year—so you're not trying to work on everything at once.
LIVE TRAINING + APPLICATION
Build It Together™
Join Sarah for a short live training connected to the monthly focus, then build something you can take back and try with your students.
LIVE Q&A + COACHING
When It Gets Messy™
Bring the classroom question, challenge, or stuck point you're dealing with and get help figuring out what to try next.
BETWEEN LIVE SESSIONS
The Community Is There When Real Classroom Life Happens.
Ask a question. Share a win. Tell us what you tried. Bring back what happened. You don't have to wait until the next live session when you need support.
SIMPLE ON PURPOSE
Start with the foundation. Focus on what matters now. Get help when it gets messy.
