Welcome to Professional Development!

Mission Statement:  The mission of the Blount County Professional Development Program is to provide a high quality program of professional development supporting student success in the classroom.

Each school in the system plans professional development activities as a part of the School Continuous Improvement Plan to address identified priorities, needs, goals, and objectives at the local school level.  A system-wide plan of professional development is then created to address the areas identified by the school plans and other pertinent data. 

RESULTS/PLANNING PROCESS

The system professional development committee, composed of a representative of each school, identifies professional development needs.  Needs and priorities are established based on multiple sources of data, including but not limited to:  Blount County Needs Assessment, Alabama Assessment Data, system assessment data, and surveys.
