Wh Why y PL PLCs? s?

  • Decades of research says schools can show improvement

if the schools have a collaborative culture, utilize common formative assessments and implement systematic, proactive interventions

  • Students have traditionally been subjected to an

educational lottery system

  • what they learn, the time devoted to particular topics,

how they are assessed, and what happens when they don’t learn has depended almost exclusively on the teacher to whom they have been assigned.

Wh Why y PLCs? s?

  • Our profession contributes to the

economic development of our nation

  • We owe it to our students to work

together – not in isolation

  • Professions work together to solve

problems together!
