The Jordan Teacher Fellows Inaugural Exhibition
Professional Development Day: April 17, 2026
1:00 - 3:00 pm
Jordan Learning Center 3706 West 9800
South Jordan, Utah 84009
This distinctive JSD Professional Development Day session offers a brief Keynote and then features opportunities to engage with each Teacher Fellow educator who will share their action project findings in an exhibition fair style format. Please join us for this signature collegial event; providing time to connect around practice and enjoy refreshments.
The Jordan Teacher Fellows is composed of competitively selected educators who form the first-of-a-kind cohort conducting a deep dive within the 6 Roles of a Utah Teacher Leader. Building from these experiences, the Teacher Fellows have launched action projects which are directed toward benefitting their school or our district.
This opportunity has been provided by the Teaching and Learning Department with the support of The Jordan Education Foundation and the USBE MASTER pilot grant. The Teacher Fellows programming aligns with the pillar of High Quality Instruction within our Jordan School District Strategic Plan.
