Instructional Leadership
Decisions about curriculum, instruction, assessment, and professional development at PCSD are made thoughtfully through collaborative processes that include leadership from each building, discipline, and academic level. Members on instructional leadership committees connect with constituent groups to facilitate feedback, the flow of ideas, and good communication. The goal of our instructional leadership team is to ensure that all students experience a high quality, rigorous curricular program delivered through developmentally appropriate, engaging instruction by teachers who are well supported in understanding and meeting the academic, social and emotional needs of their students.
