Teaching and Learning

Teaching & Learning is the heart of education and at the center of what happens in our schools each day.  We are building webpages and new content to help you understand more fully what goes on in and around our classrooms.

The left menu bar will continue to expand as more information is developed.

 

Professional Development is very important in our district and is critical to strong teaching and learning.  There is a professional learning community established in each of our schools to support teachers and staff to constantly improve their craft.  This support takes many forms, including teacher leaders in specific subject or skill areas that work one on one with teachers in their classroom, Wednesday faculty meetings where all teachers learn together, grade level groups that facilitate curriculum and strategy sharing, and dedicated staff development days.

Using assessment to inform instructional planning is integral to the on-going improvement of our schools and is often a part of professional development work.
