Members: Mrs. Trent, Mr. Leone, Ms. Zwart, Mrs. Selitto, Mrs. Gurzo, Mrs. Cline, Mrs. Yanoff

As part of the planning by the School Professional Development Committees in each building, they have created [|SMART] goals for each building. These goals are in draft form and need commenting and revision. We have set up a [|page] for each of the schools where you can review and comment on each of the goals your building’s team has proposed.

It’s important to know that your commenting is vital to this process, and your insight will help shape the direction your building community moves in next year. Commenting is simple: just enter in your text in the big box the says “Comment” below your building’s goals and click submit when you are done.

The Helen Morgan building goals for next year are below.
 * 1) Reduce number of discipline reports for each grade level for the 2011-2012 school year.
 * 2) Improve writing skills for second grade as measured by the DRA benchmark level 28.

The state has introduced new requirements regarding district professional development. Please take a look at the following links to get a brief overview. Also, in the future the committee members will be sharing our progress towards developing School Based Professional Learning Communities.
