你有没有想过教师是如何在整个职业生涯中不断成长和提高的？

在里奇菲尔德公立学校，我们的学习学院为持牌员工提供独特的专业发展模式，以支持学生的成功。 Funded through the Minnesota Department of Education's Quality Compensation Program (Q Comp), our Learning Academies provide teacher-driven courses on topics ranging from equity and social justice to literacy, technology and more.

是什么让学习型学院脱颖而出？ Courses are carefully designed to uplift teachers, align with our District's strategic goals, and promote self-care, collaboration and a supportive learning environment for all.

里奇菲尔德独有

员工在说什么

“I choose Learning Academies that support my social emotional mental health and encourage relationships with my colleagues. 这反过来又给了我更多的精力去做一个更好的老师。 I have talked to several colleagues and that is something that we all truly appreciate.”

“I was able to use the skills that I learned in my Learning Academy with my students. It created community and was fun too!”

“This Learning Academy gave our department a common language and philosophy to build our courses around.”

“I have chosen learning academies that focus on self-care for the past few years. 老实说，这让我在工作中的压力水平发生了巨大的变化。 当老师感到压力时，学生也会感到压力。 Learning how to manage my stress and let go of those things I can't control has had a positive impact on student relationships. 这也是一个与地区内其他职员建立新关系的好机会。 Expanding a support network is vital for teachers, and bringing staff from all buildings together for these learning academies has been wonderful.”

通过学习学院和我们的其他教师支持计划，我们致力于投资于教育工作者的成长和福祉。
