Designing Local Accountability Systems Flyer

Join SESC in partnership with KDE for this 3-part learning series on Student Success. This 3 part series is designed to support districts across the state in advancing student success. Sessions are open to all SESC Districts, regardless of where you are in the process of building a local accountability system. The series is open to districts that still need to create a portrait of a learner, as well as districts that are in the implementation phase. Sessions are designed as a cohort experience, with the expectation that participating districts will commit to all three sessions to build momentum and foster ongoing collaboration. #sesccoop #servingyou REGISTER HERE: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1L3ge6vezcrWhWs2gglq13YRP0vLAS8sk9i0qFNyxOEQ/edit?usp=sharing

We all want deep learning in our classrooms—but what’s getting in the way? Educators across Kentucky consistently point to three challenges:
· Students aren’t fully engaged
· Effort is inconsistent
· Learners struggle to take ownership of their progress

For decades, we've turned to new programs and shifting initiatives to address these concerns. But what if the keys to deeper learning have been right in front of us all along—in the Kentucky Adapted Framework for Teaching? Join Rick Fisher, a long-time Kentucky Educator, for an engaging and interactive session where he’ll share practical, proven strategies to support teacher development and growth through Kentucky’s exemplary teaching criteria.

In this session, you will: ✅ Learn how to create a common language for deeper learning to help guide staff development. ✅ Explore how to move from Accomplished to Exemplary using the Kentucky Adapted Framework for Teaching. ✅ Discover a set of simple, ready-to-use tools that make exemplary instruction accessible to every teacher. ✅ See how to ground boxed curriculum and personal lesson designs in the science of deeper learning to strengthen Tier 1 instruction—and beyond. Let’s move past the cycle of new initiatives and focus on what truly works. Register here to attend: bit.ly/3H6x4VT
