Guidelines for Professional Development. 1. Before the start of each school year, the District will establish overarching theme(s) or a guiding focus for Professional Development during the year, with the understanding that they may be subject to revision. Such theme(s) may vary between grade levels, content areas or school buildings. These theme(s) will be communicated by US mail to the teaching staff two (2) weeks before the first teacher work day in August. The District will anonymously survey all employees prior to planning the overarching theme and before the end of October. The data will be compiled and reviewed at Contract Review in November.
