Happy New Year!

For those of you who are interested in taking PD (Professional Development) classes to help you move up on the pay scale, here are two classes that Joe LoVerde is offering starting in February.  Joe hasn't decided yet but mentioned in his email below that this may be the last two courses that he offers here in Hawaii due to changes being made within the OCISS regarding PD classes.  

If interested, register through the PDE3 site and make sure you print out and have Brenda sign off of the form.

      Aloha Sheilynn,
       
        We want to let you know that the responsibility for professional development in the DOE is now with the Office of Curriculum, Instruction and Student Support. There are some changes that the OCISS is making regarding the PD classes being offered. The one that impacts us the most, is that starting March 1, 2018 they are putting a cap on the number of teachers who can enroll in a class. That number is 30.
         
        While we believe, that we can provide quality professional development courses with large number teachers, that is not the belief of  the OCISS. Their goal is to provide effective classes to all teachers in the state and feel that 30 participants or less is required for maximum benefit to each teacher. We respect their belief, even if we don't agree with it.
         
        This change WILL NOT impact the two spring classes we have starting in February. There is NO cap on the number of teaches who can take either of those classes, so if you are interested in earning credits before the change takes effect, you may want to enroll in one or both of those classes. Information about those two classes is below.
         
        Also, if you have credit for a class that you didn't complete, you will HAVE to use it this spring. At this time, we are determining whether or not we can continue to provide future classes, so we don't want any of you with available credit to lose that credit. We apologize for this change in policy, but it is necessary given the direction the OCISS is taking.
         
        There is a saying, "The best way to predict the future, is to create it."  So in 2018, set goals, take action and make it one of your best years ever. Our goal has always been to present professional development classes that provide each participant with the knowledge and skills to be a more effective educator. That will never change and as we move forward in 2018, we are looking at all options to continue that work and fulfill our goal.
         
        We are wishing each of you an incredible 2018!
         
        Aloha,
        Joe & Dave
