FY26 Professional Learning Request (Responses)

Carroll County Schools provides high-quality professional learning opportunities, customized support, and services designed to promote the system’s vision, mission, and goals by enhancing employee performance and developing employee capacity to lead in a system of premier schools. We are committed to developing, supporting, and implementing research-based, evidence-based, data-driven, student-focused, and sustainable professional learning over time.

Carroll County Schools offers a variety of self-directed learning options to ensure that all employees will have opportunities to increase knowledge, improve performance, and enhance professional satisfaction.

Each school year, teachers will create a self-directed learning goal to guide their professional growth. Once approved by the school administration, a SMART goal must be entered into the TKES platform. It will be revisited by the school administrator during the Mid-year and Summative Conferences to determine individual teachers' instructional progress. The following self-directed learning options are available to teachers in Carroll County:

Option I: Carroll County teachers will complete the District STEM Modules during year 2 of employment. All K-3 teachers will defer District STEM Modules until FY27 and will complete the state-required GA Reading Modules instead.

Option II: Enrollment in Continuing Education/Endorsements (enrollment details must be provided to school administration-form linked below).

Option III: Participate in Targeted Professional Learning

by attending conferences and/or enrollment in classes via RESA, GADOE PD, etc. (redelivery may be required)
provided within schools
towards District or National STEM Certification (individual teachers)
by completing grade band PL Modules
