Our Mission
Our mission is to provide the highest quality professional learning experiences and resources through collaborative, embedded, and sustained professional learning that impacts the development of each educator. Educators will then provide innovative learning experiences that meet the needs of every student.ย
Our Vision
Our vision is for all educators to be empowered with the knowledge and skills necessary to create an academic atmosphere that educates the whole child with equity and excellence.
The Office of Professional Learning is dedicated to the development of educators so they may gain the skills and knowledge necessary to provide high-quality educational experiences for all students of the Rochester City School District.ย We strive to develop meaningful learning opportunities through collaborative experiences and embedded professional growth opportunities.ย Educators can then engage students in rigorous instructional activities evidenced by increased student understanding and achievement.
ย
Our work is aligned with the New York State Professional Learning Standards. This alignment ensures that we stay current with the latest research on professional learning and work collaboratively with leaders in the profession to improve our service.
As the Office of Professional Learning moves from control over professional development into a role of consultation, monitoring, and providing additional support to school-based efforts for improving the academic performance of all Rochester students, we will use the framework for professional learning to guide our work.
