Opportunities for continual professional growth are offered across all jobclassifications and in a variety of venues.Professional Learning Communities (PLC) are critical to our vision of staff developmentas staff meet and work together to achieve the fundamental purpose of theschool, which are high levels of learning for all students.

To build our leadership capacity and skills,staff from nearly every school has attended summer PLC conferences, the latestone in June of 2005.In addition, teaching staff continue to receive training in the areas of bestinstructional practice which strengthen each teacher’s ability to deliveressential skills in the areas of science, math, social studies and languagearts to the District’s increasingly diverse student population. Other areas ofskill development include cooperative and brain-based learning, literacy,differentiation of instruction, portfolio assessment, and student-involvedconferences.
