Action Item |
DATE: | Tuesday, September 29, 2015 |
TO: | School Board Members |
FROM: | Jeff Eakins, Superintendent |
SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATIONS | |
Approve the Annual Master Inservice Plan Update Letter to the Florida Department of Education Commissioner (Student Services Division) | |
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY | |
Florida State Statute 1012.98 (4)(b)(4) mandates that all districts have a Master Inservice Plan for inservice activities and requires this plan to be approved by the local School Board annually. In addition, an annual update must be submitted to the State Board of Education and written verification must be submitted annually to the Florida Department of Education Commissioner. This agenda item requests approval for the Director of Professional Development to submit the required update letter and verification. | |
STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES | |
• Demonstrate consistent and effective teaching methods • Align the performance management system with the district's priorities • Provide for a district-wide succession planning structure and visible career ladder • Demonstrate "best practices" in all aspects of safety including students, employees, visitors, facilities, transportation, and health | |
FINANCIAL IMPACT (Budgeted: No) | |
Due to this item being for the Master Inservice Plan, not a particular training, there is no financial cost. The district spends approximately $6 on professional development opportunities each year from various sources (i.e. Title I, Title II, IDES, etc.). Last year the district expended $8 million on professional development opportunities across multiple division budgets (i.e. Title I, Title II, IDEA, Part I).

EVALUATION | |
Course evaluations are completed at the conclusion of each training. The results of the evaluations will be captured through the Professional Development System (PDS). Feedback from facilitators is used to continuously revise and update the course content. | |
