Welcome to the KY PSEL Professional Learning Series Web Page. These resources will support school and district leaders in utilizing Professional Standards for Educational Leaders (PSEL). For a link to the updated regulation, as of July 1, 2020, please click on the following link: https://apps.legislature.ky.gov/law/kar/704/003/370.pdf
Please note, while the national, Professional Standards for Educational Leaders (PSEL), must be the required criteria named in all certified evaluation plans for the evaluation of principals and assistant principals, the accompanying KY PSEL Guidance for Growth and Evaluation tool is optional. *The KY PSEL Guidance for Growth and Evaluation tool is available below!
The Kentucky PSEL Guidance for Growth and Evaluation Tool has a 2023 update. A diverse group of stakeholders worked extensively to develop possible examples by element for Standards 3, 5, & 8. The update also includes embedded hyperlinks that are designed to provide easy access to best practice ideas and spark thinking about meaningful implementation of the PSEL.
Keep in mind, the Possible Examples serve as possibilities of what the element MIGHT look like in practice. There are endless ways the standard's intent could be demonstrated. The provided examples are intended to promote thinking around authentic aspects of the school leader's work. Districts are encouraged to use the Tool as a springboard for internal discussions regarding local expectations for principals/assistant principals.
Work groups are currently developing updated Possible Examples for Standards 4 & 10. They will be released in 2024.
