Welcome to the updated Professional Development website where you will find opportunities to advance your learning as well as your license. There is a collection of professional learning experiences offered both by the district as well as through our partners with easy sign up links organized by our district priorities. Explore the pages directed to your career trajectory so you can stay on track on your way to a professional license. We’ve also teamed up with Human Capital and added some technical links to make navigating easier. We hope you see yourself learning with us.
Welcome to the 2023-2024 Professional Learning Brochure. Teacher development is a cornerstone for student success and one of our four key drivers.
Four Key Drivers
Establish a playbook to roll out clear routines and procedures that create a positive platform for learning
Strengthen quantity and quality of feedback and observation
Use targeted high-leverage and evidenced-based instructional practices (SEI strategies)
Consistently implement a process that results in Data Informed Instruction (DII)
This year we are excited to present to you the third session of our Professional Learning Academy: Thursday Seminars. Thursday Seminars provide an opportunity to collaborate with district colleagues and build skills around curriculum and instruction, SEL, technology, and supporting multilingual learners.
Use the navigation pane on this brochure to access the variety of opportunities available throughout the year. Additional information as well as registration for PD events can be found in TeachPoint/Vector Solutions. Check back regularly as we anticipate the addition of opportunities throughout the year.
We hope our PD offerings and resources will assist you in providing our students with the tools they’ll need to be engaged and empowered learners in the coming school year. We look forward to joining your learning journey.
Sincerely,
Sincerely,
M. Kate Carbone
Deputy Superintendent
