Statement of Purpose La Joya ISD clearly recognizes that staff must have opportunities to grow professionally. The On-line Summer 2018 Staff Development Catalog contains information about staff development opportunities in the La Joya Independent School District. They have been designed in response to the Needs Assessment information received from respective campuses and / or departments. Hours obtained will be used for T-TESS requirements, and certification requirements as applicable. La Joya ISD will continue to strive to attain its four main purposes:

• All students will successfully master the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS).

• All students will learn how to learn.

• All students will exit as self-directed learners. • All students will develop and act in a way that reflects a positive sense of who they are - confident and capable individuals. Documentation – Staff Responsibilities Through the La Joya ISD website www.lajoyaisd.com , each teacher will be provided with a Staff Development Catalog containing an inservice record, titled Continuing Professional Education (CPE) Activities. This may be used for recording inservice training. Each teacher should maintain documentation of all inservice activities in order to fulfill T-TESS credit. Teachers should keep certificates of completion and submit copies of those certificates to their campus inservice coordinators. In addition, any Texas educator certificates obtained after September 1, 1999 will require renewal in accordance with the Standard Certificate Renewal and Continuing Professional Education (CPE) requirements included in this catalog. Each staff member who holds a standard certificate will be responsible for keeping documentation of CPE activities for certificate renewal. Documentation - CPE Provider Responsibilities For every CPE activity completed, the provider should provide each educator with written documentation to include the provider’s name, educator’s name, content of the activity completed and number of clock hours. See the links at: (www.sbec.state.tx.us) (http://www.sbec.state.tx.us/SBECOnline/certinfo/regprov.asp)

District Required Professional Development for Teachers

To accomplish the achievement goals set for each student, effective instructional practices must be used by all teachers with every lesson taught. The following trainings will be conducted by the school principal at the beginning of each school year to insure that every student learns the knowledge and skills required in each grade. 1. Instructional Process, Lesson Design and Delivery 2. La Joya I.S.D. Classroom Practices 3. Language Arts/Reading Instructional Plan 4. Response to Intervention Process 5. The Students Code of Conduct Teachers in the beginning years of their teaching experience require further training to deliver instruction that meets the diverse learning needs of all students. Therefore, within the first three years of teaching in the district every teacher will be required to attend these trainings. Campus principals will document that all teachers have received training in these areas. 1. Positive Behavior Intervention and Support (PBIS) and Bullying Prevention (To be done during year one) 2. Reading Academy Training 3. Teacher Expectations Student Achievement (TESA) 4. Cooperative Learning 5. English Language Proficiency Standards (ELPS) 6. Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol (SIOP) (Secondary) 7. Content and Grade Level Specific Curriculum 8. Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) ***NOTE: Principals, please have each teacher print their ERO staff development transcript and bring with them for your review during summative evaluations. This will assist you in monitoring which trainings each teacher needs to complete.

La Joya Independent School District

Guidelines for Time Equivalency Program (TEP) 2018-2019

The Time Equivalency Program (TEP) is designed to allow individual staff members to tailor their staff development to meet their needs. Two days will be designated as TEP inservice days: Monday, November 19, 2018 and Tuesday, November 20, 2018. There will be no inservice provided on those days. Staff members who normally would attend inservice on those days will be required to follow the TEP guidelines listed below. The TEP guidelines are as follows: 1. Documentation for accumulation of time equivalency shall be maintained by individual staff

members, campus inservice coordinators and Central Office; however, it is each individual’s responsibility to turn in certificates for documentation to their administrators.

2. The time allocated for the accumulation of TEP credit begins June 2, 2018 and ends January 31,

2019. At the end of the day on January 31, 2019, personnel who have not completed two days of TEP staff development training between the above dates will forfeit wages (determined daily) for the deficiency. Failure to submit certificates in a timely manner will result in forfeited wages.

3. Employees hired on or after August 2018, will have until March 31, 2019 to complete their TEP

requirements. Note: Please attend sessions as soon as you can because there are few TEP sessions in February and March.

4. The principal or department supervisor must approve each staff member’s participation in an

activity for TEP credit prior to the activity. TEP hours may be forfeited if no prior approval was obtained.

5. Principals and department supervisors may choose to designate staff development as approved for

the entire staff and may require the staff to participate in those trainings for TEP credit. 6. One 6-hour day of training provides one day of TEP credit. If a one day session is more than 6

hours long, only 1 day of TEP credit will be awarded. No additional credit will be given for more than 2 days of training earned. Sessions must be a minimum of 2 consecutive hours long.

7. A person attending a session for TEP credit must complete the entire training regardless of how

many hours the person needs for TEP time. For instance, if a person needs 2 hours of TEP time and registers for a 6 hour session, the person cannot stay only 2 hours and receive credit. The individual must attend the whole session and use 2 of the 6 hours for TEP time.

8. Only that staff development training which directly relates to or improves student performance in

the subject(s) which the participant teaches the majority of the teaching day can be claimed for time equivalency credit. Teachers with multiple teaching assignments at 9-12 grades will be credited for TEP inservice activities proportionate with their assignment. All other personnel must attend appropriate job-related training.

6

9. All para-professional and clerical staff must attend TEP sessions during their summer vacation time, not during a 40 hour work week. No time and a half will qualify for TEP credit. Para-professional staff will not be allowed to work in lieu of TEP.

10. New employees whose contract begins in November 26, 2018 are not required to fulfill TEP

requirements for the current school year. 11. All 240 contract day employees are not required to fulfill TEP requirements. 12. Staff development which will provide credit for time equivalency must adhere to the following:

a. It should lead to increased student achievement. b. The content of the training must meet needs specified in both individual campus plans and the district

improvement plan. c. The content of the training should support TEA’s Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) and/or

specific to the La Joya ISD curriculum. d. If the District pays the participant a salary or a stipend for attending training sessions, credit cannot be

given. e. College courses which grant academic credit cannot be used for Time Equivalency Program credit. f. Approval to sign up for a session must be obtained in advance from the campus principal or appropriate

supervisor. g. Employees hired anytime after the beginning of school will be responsible for completing inservice

requirements as determined by the Assistant Superintendent for Curriculum and Instruction and the campus inservice coordinator.

h. Meetings such as faculty, department, etc. do not meet guidelines for TEP time. i. A presenter who does not receive payment for services will receive double TEP time for inservices

presented during the summer, after school, or on Saturday. If a presenter is training with other trainers, only the amount of time he/she is actually presenting will receive double time. After TEP days are completed, and with prior approval, a presenter may receive a stipend for conducting an inservice; any 226 employee is not eligible for this stipend.

j. TEP credit may be granted for training when the school district pays for the staff member’s travel and/or

registration fees so long as the training occurs during non-contract hours. k. No TEP credit will be awarded for PD360 on-line staff development. PD360 ONLY awards CPE credit.

Note: TEP hours will be forfeited if TEP Guidelines are not followed.

Description The Texas Performance Standards Project (TPSP) consists of research-based standards and an accompanying

assessment system that captures the high levels of achievement that GT students are able to exhibit. Student projects

in kindergarten through eighth grades are somewhat structured with students completing a series of activities to arrive

at a final product. At upper grades, exit level projects are completed more independently and students work with

mentors in the chosen field of study to create a final product. During this workshop, participants examine the tasks,

evaluate and score products, and become familiar with the process for implementing the TPSP in their classroom.
