We all want to work and learn in cultures where people thrive and change is sustained and meaningful. This session will empower teacher-driven change within a CTE staff through the creation of professional learning communities (PLC).

Sandra will help your team develop learning communities that foster the sense of teachers sharing in leadership and instructional decision-making. The models shared focus on high evidence-based instructional practices, with an emphasis on field testing and continual collaboration.

Participants will experience ways to bring industry and community partners into the learning communities for greater authentic P lessons. Teams will discuss the difference between first and second order change and understand the impact of teacher-driven initiatives on both student and teacher achievement.

This experiential session will catapult CTE teachers and leaders to shift to their next level.
