Together is better!
Instructional Focus
If we develop teachers’ capacity across all core disciplines to model subject-specific writing and provide actionable, criteria-based feedback, then students will engage in targeted revisions and take ownership of their writing, leading to deeper content mastery and a school-wide culture of clear, confident communication.
- Our Why: PDC aims to improve instruction by supporting growth and building capacity within our educators by actively breaking false narratives and barriers. This involves rallying around students, emphasizing the importance of equality and equity.
- Our How: We will facilitate a sense of belonging, inclusivity, and joy for all educators that allows us to take ownership of student outcomes and experiences.
We will provide content-specific professional learning (internal/external) that is culturally and linguistically relevant to facilitate mastery of core academic skills and content expertise.
We will develop teacher capacity by engaging in strategic inquiry cycles to practice pedagogy that prioritizes deeper learning.
