🔄 We're shaking things up here in BCPS! 🔄
At their September meeting yesterday, our BCPS Principals came together with an intentional focus on one of our district's Core Values: Proactive Innovation. We are continually looking to learn, grow, and improve here in BCPS and the work our principals are doing now is setting the stage for what our schools will become in the future. 📈
Throughout their time together, our principals worked on creating a vision for a new accountability system that focuses more on the benefits our schools provide for our students and families instead of just on test scores alone. Principals also collaborated with each other to make connections between our Graduate Profile, the KY Teacher Evaluation Tool, and ways to create Authentic Learning Experiences for students. To end the day, they started taking a look at different ways to approach studying data in their buildings.
It was a great day together with lots of creative thinking and future planning! 🧠 🤯
