Professional Development• If you have not taken the first SEI (Sheltered English

Immersion) class you must do so this year, and need to take it through a community college or university

• Most of you need some “Semester Hours” (SH listed as a deficiency on your teaching certificate)

• Opportunities will be made available to you through the CTE department that will satisfy some of your deficiencies if you have them, but are worthwhile for all teachers

To sign up for classes through MPS, the district’s electronic registration system for professional development.

Webos

A “Webo” must be completed if you:

• Are requesting tuition reimbursement or salary credit for a class prior to the start of the class

• Do any kind of work-related travel with or without students• Need to take a professional day

The tricky thing about webos is that you must access the site through Internet Explorer:http://webo2.musd.mpsaz.org/MPSParf/

See handout for Webo procedures

Some things you’ll be hearing about….• PLC’s – You will be a member of a Professional Learning

Community comprised of teachers throughout the district that teach what you teach. Your school may also require you to be a member of another PLC.

• CTE Network – Feeder junior highs and the high school they feed into communicate throughout the year through their network, and will plan and execute events to make sure that all stakeholders are aware of opportunities available in CTE programs.

• Perkins – This is the name of the person (Carl D. Perkins) who spearheaded a federal governmental act in 1984 to allocate money to “increase the quality of technical education.” To this day it is one of our main sources of funding, and each district must submit yearly goals to receive funding. MPS CTE teachers help meet these goals, and receive a stipend if requirements are satisfied.

Our Perkins Goals align with Academic Integration in CTECollege and Career Ready Standards (also known as Common Core) are important in CTE!

It is our job to teach English Language Arts (reading and writing) and Math standards within the context of our CTE curriculum

PLCs work together to plan meaningful, standards-aligned ELA and math lessons

This is the basis for your Perkins stipend

Much information and training opportunities will be forthcoming
