Professional Development & Curriculum

“A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops.”
~ Henry Adams, Historian and Teacher (1838 - 1918)

The Vestal Central School District maintains a coordinated commitment to professional development. Its primary intent is to provide creative tools, strategies and support to facilitate teacher growth and thereby enhance classroom instruction and student achievement.

All staff will be provided with high quality professional development opportunities to enhance their ability to help all students perform at high levels. To view these opportunities, use the link in the box at the right to access this month's Workshop Calendar.

We are very interested in your feedback. If there are workshops or other tools that you feel will be of value to you and your colleagues, please let us know.
