The Teaching and Learning Department is committed to develop, lead, and support all staff so that our students have the best possible learning experiences. The T & L Team is responsible for the overall planning, implementation, and evaluation of the district’s instructional programs. In support of those instructional programs, a priority is to provide high-quality professional learning so that staff is well-equipped to meet student needs. Inherent in the planning and delivery of instruction is the belief that ALL students can learn and should be offered every opportunity to take their learning to the highest levels.
