Description

These half-day events for key school system level leaders will focus on implementation of the Professional Learning Roadmap which underpins the state’s Vision for Success. Several key things must be true to position students for success along the educational journey, including adequately preparing and supporting teachers to lead high quality teaching and learning every day. All teachers can be provided with this support when school systems are strategic and intentional in their planning for improvement. A key component of overall school system strategic planning is the implementation of a comprehensive professional learning plan. The Professional Learning Roadmap intends to guide and support school system and school leaders in their implementation of essential professional learning structures: school system instructional leadership team, school instructional leadership team, and teacher collaboration. The Summit Extensions in January will support senior-level school system leaders in: understanding how the Professional Learning Roadmap supports the implementation of an effective professional learning system, implementing Louisiana’s literacy and math strategies as a system level instructional leadership team, and developing a plan of action to execute at the system level.
