The Harrison County Schools Professional Learning Community (PLC) Implementation Plan is an initiative for school improvement. The plan is designed to bring staff members together to form beginning-stage PLCs within their schools. Introduced in the spring of 2010, the PLC Implementation Plan will arm core team members with the guidance and resources to set goals and action steps for student achievement and engage them in school-based decision making of professional development that is relevant to meeting those goals.
Professional Learning Communities see student learning, not teaching, as their mission. The policies, instruction, curriculum, programs, professional development, and other functions of the school all support student learning. In maintaining this constant focus on learning, four questions become paramount:
1. What should students know and be able to do?
2. How will the school determine that students have learned the essential knowledge and skills?
3. How will the school respond when students do not learn?
4. How will the school respond when they already know it?PLC Resources:
