The purpose of professional development is to enhance student learning by promoting increased knowledge, skill, and effectiveness of educators and other members of the educational community.  Professional development is critical in enhancing an individual’s ability to perform as an educator and is essential in ensuring student achievement.  Effective professional development supports the long-range goals of the school district.  Staff development provides those who impact student learning a wide variety of opportunities for ongoing growth to enhance an individual’s knowledge, skills, and attitudes.  Research shows that effective professional development has a positive impact on student achievement.  Professional development promotes systematic approaches to improving teaching and learning.  Effective professional development results in new learning of educational research and practices, that, when implemented, increase student achievement.
