Program Evaluation
Data → Analytics → Results
Creative Education Partners believes that educational excellence occurs at the intersection of innovation, data, and purpose. We partner with schools and districts to generate logic models, conduct needs assessments, process evaluations, and impact evaluations, and lead strategic planning efforts. Our firm offers customizable, virtual or in-person evaluation plans to meet the needs of educational organizations of all sizes.
Logic Models
Using our targeted method, Creative Education Partners collaborates with administrators to create a logic model that visually displays how to move from an organization’s goals to outcomes. These logic models are the roadmaps of a program that are foundational to successful implementation.
Needs Assessment
Creative Education Partners coordinates with administrators who recognize that their educational system is not reaching the intended goals. We collect and analyze data to assist leaders in better understanding the gap in performance and inform their next steps
Process Evaluations
While programs are in operation, Creative Education Partners systematically collects and analyzes data to reveal the extent to which the program is aligned to the organization’s logic model. We provide specific recommendations for the improvement or continuation of services as needed.
Impact Evaluations
At Creative Education Partners, we conduct impact evaluations to measure the magnitude of any effects that occurred as a result of a specific program or intervention. Administrators can use the results of an impact evaluation to determine whether to continue, revise, or abandon a specific program.
Strategic Planning
Creative Education Partners coordinates with administrators who recognize that their educational system is not reaching the intended goals. We collect and analyze data to assist leaders in better understanding the gap in performance and inform their next steps.

Kelly Margot - Grand Valley State University
Our academic program was lucky enough to have Laila provide an external program evaluation. She worked with us in a year-long process and developed extensive feedback and solutions for our academic program based on her own knowledge and experiences. Throughout the entire process, she was always available to answer any questions we had about the evaluation and provide prompt responses. As we prepared for the final review, she provided us with a comprehensive and thoughtful feedback report that helped us to revise and improve our program. We are grateful for Laila's professionalism, expertise, and dedication to providing us with a valuable evaluation that will guide our program's growth and success for years to come.

Julie Leslie Grapevine - Colleyville ISD
Dr. Todd Kettler did an outstanding job evaluating GCISD’s ASPIRE Academy for the Highly Gifted. He utilized anonymous surveys, interviews, and focus groups to get feedback from a wide range of stakeholders that included students, parents, teachers, counselors, campus administrators, and district leaders. Dr. Kettler visited classrooms to observe and scrutinized our program documents.
Dr. Kettler‘s warm, highly relational personality allowed him to put people at ease and earn their trust. The end result was a thorough, insightful evaluation that we utilized immediately to improve our program. Our experience with Dr. Kettler was extremely positive!
