Instructional Days 

What are they? Teacher-Driven PD, that's what! Instructional Days are part of the Collective Bargaining Agreement between KPBSD and KPEA.  On page 15 of that document (or pg. 22 in pdf linked) is an opportunity just waiting for you to take advantage of it. All teachers are eligible; tenure doesn't matter. 
​
Here's the breakdown:
  • ​1-day sub covered
  • approved by your building admin
  • sole purpose is to let you drive your own growth!
Here's the protocol:
  • find the colleague(s) you want to learn from/collaborate with
  • ask your building admin for the day


​Just go for it!
Let no Instructional Day go unused! 

Resource Ideas:
Wondering WHO you might want to spend your day with? Consider these options...
  • At your school...
    • Any colleagues in your building you are interested in learning/collaborating with?
    • Ask your School's PL Champ! See if they can reach out to help you find someone focusing on similar ideas.
  • District level...
