Summary

District staff described a Professional Learning Community reset—three‑year, school‑by‑school approach to rebuild PLC practice—and described supports including walkthrough forms, archived trainings, and building‑level follow up.

District leaders told the board the PLC reset is intended to restore consistent, high‑quality collaborative practice in schools by training staff (year 1), gradually withdrawing supports (year 2), and expecting higher autonomy and performance (year 3). Presenters said the reset is school‑based rather than cohort‑based and includes a PLC walkthrough form and archived training materials to bring new staff up to speed.

"So the PLCs, we've had for about a decade... The reset just refers to, like, hey, guys, we gotta step back," a presenter said, explaining the difference between existing PLC time and the formal reset. Board members asked how teachers who lag are supported; staff said building leadership, department chairs, and the PLC team will provide targeted interventions and resources.
