Advanced Placement Information

Professional Development:

Professional development is learning the process that allows educators to improve the educational organization and promotes personal and work-related growth. It serves to improve student learning by creating an environment that will enable educators to:

·    invest in quality opportunities to grow individually and collaboratively,

·    enhance job-related skills,

·    acquire new knowledge, and

·    share expertise and insights.

Webster County School District encourages all staff to participate in professional development opportunities and its educators have the professional and contractual responsibility to participate in professional development opportunities for license renewal. The selection of professional development options is to be focused on improving student learning. Each educator is individually responsible for selecting his or her own professional development programs. Educators are also responsible for submitting documentation for license renewal to the Mississippi Department of Education's Office of Educator Licensure. Administrators expect all educators to participate in the district’s professional development programs as required by the Mississippi State Board of Education. We also realize that professional development is the key to improvement.
