Holistic Professional Development for Schools
One Program. One Partner. One Price.
A full-year professional development program for your entire school community through staff well-being, skill-building, and leadership support.
Holistic professional development is a full-year approach designed for your entire school community, not just classroom teachers. Teachers, specialists, support staff, secretaries, and school leaders all have a role in shaping school culture, so Holistic PD provides professional learning and support for everyone who helps your school thrive.
Rather than relying on one-time PD sessions, Holistic PD supports educators, staff, and school leaders throughout the year because lasting school culture isn’t built in a day or by a single person.

- Staff Well-Being: Lesson Plan for Life builds daily habits that last.
- Skill-Building: On-demand courses that meet your staff’s needs.
- Leadership Support: Integrated tools to drive culture change.

Staff Well-Being
Well-being isn’t a break from the work—it fuels it. Lesson Plan for Life helps every adult in your school build sustainable habits that support well-being—without adding to their plates. When the adults thrive, culture strengthens, students benefit, and positive momentum builds.
Skill-Building
Professional learning should feel practical, personalized, and worth every minute. With over 20 on-demand courses, educators—including teachers, specialists, and support staff—choose what they need, when they need it. Every course delivers real strategies for real classrooms, building confidence and capacity that lasts.
Culture-Shaping Leadership
You became a leader to make a difference—this is how you do it. Holistic PD gives you the tools and support to lead ongoing, schoolwide growth—without burning out. You’ll build alignment, deepen trust, and empower your staff every day, not just on PD days.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Holistic PD a good fit for my school?
Absolutely—if you’re ready to support your entire staff in meaningful, lasting ways. Holistic PD works for schools of all sizes and settings. We serve teachers, specialists, support staff, and leaders—all with flexible tools designed for real school life.
What exactly is included in Holistic PD?
You’ll get three fully integrated learning systems:
- Lesson Plan for Life (staff well-being)
- A library of on-demand Skill-Building courses
- Leadership support resources and tools
Plus: Full-year access, implementation guides, and ready-to-use materials for up to 50 users.
How is this different from other PD we’ve tried?
Typical PD: primarily classroom-teacher focused
Positive School Solutions’ Holistic PD: teachers + specialists + support staff + secretaries + school leaders
This isn’t one-and-done training for classroom teachers alone. Holistic PD is ongoing, personalized, and designed to support daily culture—not just compliance—across your whole school community. It’s PD that actually gets used by everyone—built to be relevant, practical, and empowering for every adult in your building.
How much does it cost—and is it really worth it?
Holistic PD is $45,000/year for up to 50 users—less than $900 per person for a full year of flexible, high-impact learning. Most schools pay more for single-day PD that fades fast. This is a full-year culture shift, not a quick fix.
What if my school doesn't have 50 staff members?
Let’s talk! We believe every school deserves access to high-quality PD. We’ll explore your school’s unique needs and find a plan that makes Holistic PD work for your size and budget.
How much work will this require from me as a leader?
Very little. We handle the logistics, send everything you need, and help you track progress. You get to lead the culture shift—not manage the details. We’ll even send you check-in notes and quick guides to keep everything moving smoothly.
Can our Dean or Assistant Principal be included in the leadership training?
Absolutely. Holistic PD is designed to support your full leadership team. When administrators grow together, they shape a more unified vision and drive culture change more effectively.
How much time do I need to give my staff for Lesson Plan for Life?
Daily tasks are designed to be embedded into the workday and require no extra time. Once per week, participants view a masterclass (30–65 minutes). Many complete it during prep or lunch—but some choose to watch at home because it’s calming, inspiring, and genuinely enjoyable.
Can we start with just one component—like Lesson Plan for Life or Skill-Building?
Yes! While Holistic PD is most powerful as a full system, many schools begin with just one element. You can start with Lesson Plan for Life or Skill-Building and expand as you see results.
What kind of support do I get as the school leader?
You’ll get built-in leadership tools, planning guides, and ready-to-use materials—plus optional check-ins and coaching if desired. We handle the logistics so you can focus on the people.
Can this be used across multiple schools in a district?
Yes! Your license includes up to 50 users and can be used within one school or spread across multiple sites. We’ll help you customize implementation based on your structure.
Is this aligned with other initiatives we’re already working on?
Yes. Holistic PD is designed to enhance your existing goals around school culture, MTSS, retention, and teacher effectiveness. We build alignment, not more work.
Do you offer any live sessions or in-person options?
Yes. While Holistic PD is fully functional as an on-demand model, we also offer in-person or live virtual sessions upon request. We’ll help you design a delivery plan that fits your needs.
If you want different results, it’s time for a different approach.
Holistic PD is the shift your school has been waiting for.
