For Elementary Principals:
Grade-Level Literacy Professional Development
We are excited for the opportunity to continue grade level specific work with teachers. Three days per grade level are scheduled throughout the year to address Literacy topics pertinent to each grade level. Classroom teachers will determine the content and presentations will be made by teachers, curriculum staff, and others. All information will be connected to the Utah Elementary ELA State Core Standards and the JSD Comprehensive Balanced Literacy Framework. The teachers selected to attend these sessions are expected to take the information back to school and share with their team. The Curriculum Department will pay for one substitute per grade level for each session. If you have off-track teachers that are able to attend, please consider sending them first to alleviate possible substitute issues. They will be paid inservice rate for their attendance. Registration is available on JPLS for each session.
Please put the following dates on your calendar.
