Copper River School District Professional Development Day

The Copper River School District is holding a Professional Development Day to review key updates on state regulations, including teacher evaluation assessments and writing assessments. Participants will engage in ALIO Systems training and discuss the CRSD website facelift and social media updates. With new regulations tying teacher evaluations to student growth data, it’s essential for educators to understand these changes. The session will also cover writing assessment methodologies, including the Six-Trait model, to enhance instruction and improve student success in standardized testing.
