CONSULTING

EnlightenED Bridges, LLC.

Alongside her work as a Title I principal and post-secondary faculty evaluator, Dr. Darbonne is the founder and principal consultant of EnlightenED Bridges — an educational consulting practice serving Title I schools, charter networks, education-focused nonprofits, and first- and second-year principals nationwide.

Methodology

THE 3C FRAMEWORK: CLARITY, CAPACITY, CONTINUITY

CLARITY

Diagnose where the school truly is. Establish trust. Co-create a plan grounded in the school’s context, not imported from elsewhere.

Every engagement at EnlightenED Bridges, LLC is anchored in Dr. Darbonne’s proprietary methodology: the 3C Framework. Three commitments that shape how the work begins, how it builds, and how it lasts.

CAPACITY

Build the systems. Develop the leadership. Empower the staff. Growth that does not depend on any one person to sustain it.

CONTINUITY

Monitor progress. Document impact. Institutionalize gains — so the work outlasts the consultant.
