In alignment with the Effective PD Design Principles, Professional development must be aligned to SCSs goals, vision of effective teaching, academic priorities, and evaluation system.First and foremost, any SCS professional development must be directly tied to Destination 2025 and the key pillars of the districts strategic plan. In addition, PD must be directly aligned to the districts vision of effective teaching (captured in the TEM or elsewhere), academic priorities (such as literacy, writing, and early childhood education), and needs defined by teacher observations (such as planning, clear delivery of content, etc.).

In alignment with the Effective PD Design Principles, Professional development must be MEASUREABLE: Professional developments impact must be measured and evaluated strategically.Professional development is intended to improve teacher performance and student achievement, so we must name the change we expect to see in teacher and student performance as a result of professional development experiences. Given the time and resources professional development consumes, we must measure the effectiveness of PD so that we can determine where to spend more time and resources, given the outcomes that we see. How will you track engagement in PD mapped to student achievement and teacher improvement so that you can ensure that the professional development actually improves teacher performance and ultimately, student achievement?
