Welcome to the 2008/2009 school year AND
Welcome to your Professional Learning Community





Professional Learning Communities or PLC’s, are schools that are united in their commitment to student learning. Rick DuFour states “A PLC is when educators are committed to working collaboratively in the ongoing process of collective inquiry and action research in order to achieve better results for the students they serve. PLC’s operate under the assumption that the key to improved learning for students is continuous, job embedded learning for educators.” A PLC shifts the focus from teaching to learning, which means we are constantly assessing the learning of our students by using MAPS, CSAP, DIBELS and teacher constructed internal assessments, to ensure that each and every student is as successful as possible. The mission of the Mancos School District is for “In partnership with our community, we will foster safe, positive and rigorous learning experiences.” Through a Professional Learning Community, we can successfully accomplish our mission.
           
The essential key to building and maintaining a successful PLC is collaboration. Collaboration, as defined by Richard DuFour, is a systematic process in which we work together interdependently to analyze and impact professional practice in order to improve our individual and collective results. Teachers must be given the time and opportunity to meet, together as professionals, to make the changes needed to improve your child’s education. If student achievement is to improve, teachers cannot work in isolation anymore.

During collaboration, teachers are focusing their discussion efforts around the four essential questions of a Professional Learning Community. These questions are, in order: 1). Does every teacher in our school understand what each student should know and be able to do after completing the unit of instruction, course and grade level? 2). What systems do we have in place to monitor each student’s learning on a timely basis? 3). What is our systematic response when a student is not learning? 4). What is our response when a student already knows the material before it is taught? Each time grade level teams meet to collaborate they are in some way addressing and discussing one or more of the above questions. Teachers are discussing curriculum, making adjustments in both curriculum and instructional strategies, analyzing data to determine the needs of individual students and most importantly making action plans when a student has failed to learn a particular skill.

Throughout the year, you will hear the term PLC many more times. We are passionate about where our professional learning community journey will take us and invite you to join us. Again, welcome to your Professional Learning Community.
