BPACE has been selected to be one of only twelve Adult Schools in the
state to participate in the California Adult Literacy Professional
Development Projects' (CALPRO) Professional Learning Community
Institute.
This four-day professional development event will take place in two
sessions. The first two-day session will take place on December 9 and
10, 2010, and will be held in Sacramento. The second two-day session
will take place approximately May 19 and 20, 2011.
The December session will provide agencies the framework and the
training needed to plan and start a PLC process of school improvement
focusing on student learning through embedded professional development.
The two days in May will be devoted to feedback, evaluation and problem
solving with the participating agencies.
The twelve schools are required to send a team of two, their Director/
Principal and one teacher or professional development staff person, to
participate in the Institute. All travel, lodging and training costs are
covered by CALPRO.
BPACE's application focused on the use of data to improve student
learning (and as a result Federal paypoints) in ABE, ESL and High School
Diploma programs.
