Training in the School District of Waukesha

This week our EMLSS project teams continued their work. Our team working on training in the district reviewed our vision statement as well as our common definition for training.

SDW Training VISION: In the School District of Waukesha training will equip new and experienced staff with knowledge, strategies, and skills that will build a foundation to empower our educators to disrupt inequities and improve outcomes for all students.

Training in the School District of Waukesha educates staff on theory, instructional strategies, and evidenced-based practices that address the needs of all our students with a priority on our marginalized students. Training will use consistent adult learning practices and be aligned to district goals, while being flexible enough to support a diversity of needs, roles, and building priorities.  

The team is heavy into developing a checklist for high quality professional development. Think about all the professional development that has happened over the last month. How can we ensure it is high quality for you?

Creating a guidance document when designing professional development would be helpful and impactful. More to come on what this might look like for future professional development offerings not only by the district, but by each of you in your schools on a monthly basis.
