Agenda Item Summary:
This brief will clarify the possible activities and logistics for the upcoming Professional Learning Day on March 21, 2022. The focus of this day will be on Intervention and Enrichment of Learning, which may include social-emotional learning, differentiation for diverse learners, technology integration, data collection and analysis, and fidelity to instructional programs.  
Background:
ACPS will offer professional learning sessions in three formats: morning, afternoon, or full-day sessions. The morning sessions will occur from 9:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., and the afternoon sessions will occur from 1:00 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. This timing allows for lunch, collaboration, and possible travel to different locations. All-day sessions will occur from 9:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. with breaks and lunch built into the day by the instructor of the individual sections.

All professional learning sessions on March 21 will be held virtually. Section instructors will add the link to join, which will be located in the ACPS Professional Learning Management System (PLMS).
 
Recommendation
The Superintendent recommends that the School Board review the information in this Professional Learning Update Board Brief.
