PLC Success Criteria
Team Leads met as a Building Learning Team and worked out a set of Success Criteria that would ensure collaborative, efficient and student-centered PLC/Team Time. Consider them "Norms+" and it reinforces much of what teams are doing already and what we are learning from other successful teams in the district. We will review these at our next Staff Learning Time.
