WV State Board of EducationComprehensive System of Support Guidelines • Use local resources to focus on the priority professional development goals • Select master teachers, mentors, academic coaches based on demonstrated superior performance and competence • Adjust scheduling, use of substitutes, collaborative planning time, calendar or other measures as may be necessary to provide sufficient time for professional personnel ; • Monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of implementation and outcomes of the county system of support for improving professional practice.

Where did you find data? • Convene a district team • Complete a needs assessment • Identify priority areas of professional development for individuals/schools/county based on: • Data from individual professional evaluations • Needs of teachers/administrators from self-assessments • Student learning data from multiple measures including Formative Assessments • Needs of beginning educators

Reflect and Share • How does your district provide strong, school based support to beginning teachers? • How does your district provide strong, school based support to emerging/struggling teachers? • How does your district use data from the evaluation system to determine PD for the district, schools and individuals? • How does your district create a productive learning experience for student teachers?
