Professional Learning
Investing in teacher excellence...
Quality professional learning ("PL") is one of the most powerful levers for increasing and improving educator knowledge, skills and dispositions leading to improved student learning results.
Burlingame SD's approach to professional learning is guided by the Quality Professional Learning Standards, which provide a framework for a coherent and effective approach to growing teacher capacity.
