2Professional Learning Framework Overview
2022-2023
Professional Learning is an integral part of the overall mission of the Teaching and
Learning Department. This ongoing, comprehensive plan details the continued
integration of the Conroe ISD Instructional Model as it is addressed through the
various professional learning workshop offerings. The district’s curriculum,
instruction, and professional learning are adjusted, developed, and aligned on
an ongoing basis to address the district’s student achievement needs as
evaluated in data reflective of student performance on statewide and locally
developed assessments. The department’s resources, time, and budgets are
aligned for the best possible use of our professional learning local and federal
funds.
The Teaching and Learning Department participates in district-wide initiatives and
various content areas and special programs. Over the past fifteen years our plan
for professional learning has incorporated the addition of layers to the Conroe ISD
Instructional Model with the spiraling from year to year of training on best
practices emphasizing differentiated instruction. In addition to these district-wide
professional learning workshops, professionals in the department provide feeder-
based and individual campus professional learning based on the needs
determined by the campus administration in their Campus Improvement Plans
and student achievement data.
Teachers also access the professional learning sessions through our online
Eduphoria Workshop registration system. Each teacher in the district has a
personal profile which tracks their professional development. The Teaching and
Learning Department has also expanded online offerings to district
paraprofessionals and substitutes and will continue its expansion in all content
areas.
The Teaching and Learning Department is dedicated to supporting quality
instruction in our district. Focusing on providing comprehensive professional
learning programs is one way of supporting our district’s quality instructional
programs. We also continue to recognize the ongoing need to grow the
leadership capacity with our in-district talent as well as bringing in current
research-based best practices that align with our district’s Professional Learning
Framework and Instructional Model.
3Professional Learning Highlights
2022-2023
CISD Leadership Academy – Is a series of professional learning opportunities for
Conroe ISD team members interested in developing leadership skills in their
current positions or in becoming principals, assistant principals, Teaching and
Learning coordinators, counselors, diagnosticians, specialists or other leadership
roles. The training series provides support for current teachers seeking to enhance
their leadership skills and knowledge, for individuals who aspire to become
campus administrators, for individuals seeking future district leadership
opportunities other than campus administration, and continued support and
refinement for current administrators.
Cross-Curricular Integration – The Teaching and Learning Department will
continue to emphasize cross-curricular instruction with an added focus on
alignment of integrated TEKS and corresponding cross-curricular activities
including the alignment of materials. The integration of College and Career
Readiness (CCRS) and English Language Proficiency Standards (ELPS), as well as
the new Technology Applications TEKS for grades K-12 from the state, will continue
to be emphasized throughout the curriculum and trainings offered by The
Teaching and Learning Department.
Curriculum, Management Audit Training (CMAT) Level 1 - Members of both
Teaching and Learning and Student Support Services departments will participate
in the Level 1 CMAT training provided by the Texas Association of School
Administrators (TASA) next school year. Level 1 CMAT focuses on the best thinking
in curriculum, assessment, and instructional design and delivery, using the five
Curriculum Management Audit™ standards written by Fenwick English to
maximize student achievement: (1) planning and change; (2) curriculum scope;
(3) staff development; (4) assessment scope and trend data; and (5) planning
and the change intervention process. CISD staff will use this knowledge to
determine scope of written curriculum and specification of curriculum guide
components, to ensure district wide curriculum articulation and development,
and to establish an internal curriculum management plan. In addition, systems of
identifying district equality issues, assessing curriculum connectivity, using test
data appropriately, and monitoring curriculum and instruction delivery through
the use of teacher appraisals and walk-throughs will be established.
Dyslexia Program Training – In order to serve students with dyslexia in the most
effective and efficient manner, Conroe ISD provides training for Region 4
Education Service Center’s Reading by Design: An Individualized Literacy
Intervention. This evidence-based dyslexia program is for dyslexia teachers
4(Kindergarten – 12th Grade) throughout the district and provides instruction for
the implementation of a systematic, explicit, and multisensory dyslexia
intervention. CISD provides interventions using Reading by Design, Take Flight, and
Esperanza. All of these programs are aligned with research-based practices for
developing literacy and follow an intensive, explicit, and cumulative design for
remediation of reading and writing skills for students with dyslexia. As a
department, we continue to support campuses by providing annual dyslexia
training, as well as online, district, and campus professional learning opportunities
for all teachers focused on supporting students with dyslexia. Dyslexia
interventionists will continue to hone their craft through professional learning
opportunities provided throughout the year. The Dyslexia Department continues
to provide dyslexia certification opportunities for dyslexia interventionists
employed by CISD. In addition to the four interventionists currently on year two
of the CALT/ALT-A certification track with the Dyslexia Center of Austin using Take
Flight, a Scottish Rite intervention, more are beginning training this summer.
Bilingual dyslexia interventionists also have the opportunity to pursue bilingual
CALP certification.
Education Resource Group Guided Math Schools - The Conroe ISD Math
Department will work collaboratively with the Education Resource Group team to
complete a Guided Math Framework Math Leadership Team Model with a
specific focus on small group instruction and anchor stations. This will be delivered
through ten days (or maybe less for year two campuses) of job-embedded
professional learning using a strategic approach to develop teacher capacity by
grounding the professional development in day-to-day teaching practices. This
job imbedded coaching will consist of a combination of an
observation/feedback support cycle, goal setting, tips with resources,
demonstration lessons and lesson planning assistance. Each coaching model will
be tailored to the campus's specific needs in the areas of small group instruction
and anchor stations based on the data collected in an initial two-day audit of the
campuses current Guided Math program. The overall coaching capacity and
techniques that will be gained from this leadership model will reach beyond the
content of mathematics so that coaching can become consistent and pervasive
at the school level.
Instructional Coaching Institute – Instructional coaching is a form of ongoing job
embedded professional learning within classrooms that helps our district’s
teachers develop strong plans, obtain feedback, refine their practices, and
examine results. Research shows that strong instructional coaching can make a
significant difference for teacher practice and student outcomes. Conroe ISD
has developed a district instructional coaching model and plan for professional
learning for all district administrators and both district and campus instructional
coaches. The Professional Learning Framework will additionally expand the
current district’s instructional coaching program into the secondary level as well
5as support principals in developing and implementing a Professional Learning
Framework for their individual campus. Within the scope of the institute,
instructional coaches will learn the knowledge and skills of six essential domains:
(1) understanding how to work with adults; (2) understanding the coaching cycle;
(3) understanding high-impact teaching practices; (4) understanding how to
gather data and use video as a part of coaching; (5) effective communication
skills; and (6) effective leadership skills and systems thinking, that need to be in
place for success.
Instructional Technology Professional Learning – Instructional Technology
promotes using technology effectively for assessing student learning,
differentiating instruction, and providing relevant and engaging learning
experiences for all students. Professional learning opportunities are provided to
build the capacity of teachers and administrators to fully integrate technology
into the instructional process. In addition to the professional learning opportunities
offered throughout the year, instructional technology remains committed to
meeting the needs of teachers and campuses through designing professional
learning opportunities on campus.
Jennifer Serravallo and Onsite Campus Coaching and Modeling – Jennifer
Serravallo's standing in CISD is exceptionally high due to the accessibility of her
published resources, The Reading and Writing Strategies Books and Reading
Conferences. Campuses using staff developers from Serravallo's team will spend
the year exploring conferring and small group instruction in depth. A customized
professional learning cycle of PD, classroom work and reflection will be built
around each topic selected by the campus.
Multi-Tiered Systems and Supports (MTSS) – Is a framework that takes a proactive
approach to identifying students with academic or behavioral needs. The
Department of Student Support Services will be providing professional learning
throughout leadership training focusing on the components of the safe and
collaborative culture, high-quality instruction, strategic use of data, and
professional teaching and learning. Training will also be provided to campus
teams on the problem-solving process and use of the Branching Minds
technology platform to track the effectiveness of interventions.
Standards Based Report Card Training – for 1st Grade Teachers is an optional 1/2
day Q & A to provide clarity to teachers who were hired for this year and/or those
who need additional clarification on the work.
New Hires – The district’s newly hired teachers will have opportunities to attend a
New Hire series of workshops that are specifically designed for teachers to have
background in the district’s best practices. The trainings will allow the teachers to
“hit the ground running” in the fall with this rich instructional background. The
6Teaching and Learning Department will be encouraging current district teachers
who are changing content areas to attend these trainings as well.
Positive Behavior Interventions & Supports (PBIS) – PBIS is a positive, proactive and
instructional approach to strengthen school climate, culture and safety, improve
classroom management, promote positive relationships in schools and provide
students with social and behavioral skills needed to be successful learners. PBIS is
designed to improve behavioral success by employing a nonpunitive, proactive,
multi-tiered system of supports. PBIS can involve procedures at the school-wide
level, the classroom level, and the individual student level. It is essential that
universal factors are the primary focus of professional learning for PBIS. This
includes the structure of the school/classroom, the teaching of expectations to
students, observing and monitoring student behavior and adjusting plans when
necessary, initiating positive interactions with students to form positive
relationships, and correcting student behavior in a calm, consistent, and fluent
manner.
In 2022-2023, campus teams will continue to participate in team training to
develop a comprehensive plan to implement school-wide PBIS through the work
of Foundations. The professional learning focuses on creating supportive
environments that have clear and positive behavioral expectations that are
taught and practiced, consistent supervision skills, as well as effective behavior
management and positive behavior support of all students.
To address classroom and behavior management, professional learning will be
provided to all new teachers during Intro to CISD on the CHAMPS process.
CHAMPS is not a program, but a process designed to help school personnel make
all settings physically and emotionally safe for all students and staff. It helps
teachers identify and maintain the effective aspects of current management
plans while adding and/or strengthening missing or less-effective aspects. This
approach guides teachers in making research and data-based decisions on
classroom management. This will be done through district-wide professional
learning, campus-based staff development, and working with individual
classrooms and teachers.
Reading Academies - As part of House Bill 3, the Elementary Language Arts
Department will continue to provide Reading Academies in the 2022-2023 school
year. In CISD, we anticipate completing the training and support of nearly all K-4
staff and anticipate expanding our work into the intermediate grades in the fall
of 2023. The content of the Academy covers a wide range of literacy topics, from
phonological awareness to advanced comprehension skills. In addition to Self-
Paced module work, participants will receive regular on-site coaching to help
take the learning into classrooms.
7Ready Bodies, Learning Minds - With the increasing demands on our youngest
students, coupled with a recent trend that limits exposure to movement from
infancy to school appropriate age, we are seeing more students with immature
and faulty sensory, lack of motor development, and struggling to adapt to the
school environment. Motor and sensory development provides the central
nervous system with the ability to perform tasks necessary for success in school.
Limited attention span, poor posture, difficulty sustaining equilibrium, poor
coordination, restlessness, problems with spatial relationships and slow academic
progress are common with immature neurological systems. If the neurological
systems are not functioning properly, the student will have a limited foundation
on which to build. We must support our students in building this foundation. We
can accomplish this by providing them with targeted experiences that teach
them the skills that are prerequisites for learning. This will be accomplished through
the implementation of Ready Bodies, Learning Minds Motor Labs as a part of our
implementation of full day Prekindergarten during their Physical Education time
of the day. The development of these skills, necessary for learning readiness and
mastery of the environment, is the goal of Ready Bodies, Learning Minds Motor
Labs.
Vector Solutions – Teachers, librarians, speech therapists, and nurses will have the
opportunity to take online staff development courses during the summer in
“exchange” for not being required to attend the professional learning training on
August 2, 2022. The online training for “exchange” day is through the Vector
Solutions system. Vector Solutions is a library of online school-focused safety
courses that can be accessed anytime, anywhere through the Conroe ISD Single
Sign-On or the Conroe ISD website. The Vector Solutions courses selected for our
faculty and staff cover varying topics including Child Abuse Identification and
Intervention, Emergency Operations, Cybersecurity, Health Emergencies, Sexual
Harassment, and many others.
Social Emotional Learning (SEL) – The Student Support Service Department will
continue to provide training on Social Emotional Learning through campus
Foundations teams. Through this work, students will develop a healthy sense of self
and consideration for others, recognize diversity with understanding and respect
for others, successfully manage their emotions and behaviors, and make
responsible decisions.
Special Education Learning Institute – To build capacity in special education
teachers by applying the foundations of special education to job-related
experiences. Participants will learn how to increase their collaboration with other
staff, implement active engagement techniques, provide effective in-class
support, and integrate content knowledge and strategies in order to specially
design instruction. This will also include developing a better understanding of the
process of creating meaningful IEPs, which will improve student achievement.
8State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness (STAAR) Initiative – The
Teaching and Learning Department will continue taking the lead by preparing
the district’s administrative staff and teachers for the instructional depth and rigor
necessitated by our state assessment. The Teaching and Learning Department
will emphasize the components of the Conroe ISD Instructional Model during the
District Wide Professional Learning on August 4, 2022. The focus of conference
speakers as well as content sessions will include the following:
The Conroe ISD Instructional Model
Integration of Online Assessment Items and Instructional Best Practices
Purpose of Common Formative Assessments and Data-Informed Instruction
Use of Accommodations During Daily Instruction and Assessment
Solicitation of Teacher Feedback on the new Curriculum Audit Management
Training (CMAT) Process
Social Emotional Learning
Follow-up trainings will be provided throughout the 2022-2023 school year through
content area leadership meetings.
Summer Curriculum Rewrites and Revisions – Each summer the Teaching and
Learning Department engages in curriculum rewrites or revisions based on any
changes in state TEKS/curriculum and on a review of district/campus assessment
data. The changes result in some revisions in all core content areas each year.
The Teaching and Learning Coordinators develop teams of master teacher
curriculum writers that are trained by the core coordinators and district
instructional coaches. The process is also facilitated and monitored by the
Teaching and Learning staff.
Texas Instructional Leadership (TIL) – Is a program through which campuses and
district leaders receive training and support in their ability to build the capacity of
educators that they manage. It consists of a suite of trainings intended to foster
continuous improvement by helping campus and district administrators grow
concrete instructional leadership skills in the areas of lesson alignment and
formative assessments, observation and feedback, schoolwide culture routines,
and data driven instruction.
TIL trainings are aligned with many of the best practices described in the Effective
Schools Framework. The trainings are provided by Education Service Centers in
an effort to build capacity and support in the execution of a campus
improvement plan. The trainings include face-to-face professional development,
implementation support, and one-on-one coaching.
9The Holdsworth Center Leadership Collaborative – Is designed to help district
leaders build internal leadership capacity, with the end goal of having a strong
bench of leaders ready to step into school leader positions when they arise.
Specifically, district leaders will define what great leadership looks like in their
district and learn how to use their district’s leadership framework to build systems
and structure to sustain their school leadership pipeline. CISD will work with
Holdsworth staff to learn best practices from organizations inside and outside of
education that have built high-performing talent management systems.
Additionally, learning content will feature elements of Holdsworth’s core
curriculum for all Holdsworth leaders in the areas of personal leadership, growing
and empowering others and creating change. Three CISD staff members will
participate in this program, Assistant Superintendent of Teaching and Learning,
Assistant Superintendent of Student Support Services, and the Director of Human
Resources.
The Teaching and Learning Instruction Model (Conroe ISD Instructional Model) –
The Teaching and Learning Department continues to assume the leadership role
in implementing the Conroe ISD Instructional Model emphasizing all aspects of
differentiated instruction. The three components of our district’s instructional
model include the alignment of the TEKS, the students’ Learning process of the
required curriculum, and the ongoing Assessment in which both teachers and
students evaluate their learning (See Conroe ISD Instructional Model on page 8).
Lead4ward Leadership Sessions – lead4ward makes a difference in the lives of
students by helping educators focus their work, creating structures that give
teachers and students a sense of hope and confidence, and supporting leaders
with systems they can trust. Our leadership sessions start with maximizing time to
plan instruction that is relevant, engaging, and rigorous! Using lead4ward’s
methodology and tools, we’ll investigate the thinking skills students need to be
successful on STAAR 2.0, help them apply their learning, and show what they
know. During this professional development, leaders will have the opportunity to:
• use the lead4ward tools and resources in instructional planning
• enhance activities with the Instructional Strategies Playlist
• establish instructional routines for all students
• discover ways to expand student thinking
• move instructional planning to action
• connect learning to student success, including STAAR 2.0
Executive N2 Learning –The Executive Leadership Institute (ELI) is designed to build
the capacity of district executive leaders for system-wide improvements in
teaching and learning. Sessions will include opportunities for leaders to cultivate
strategic approaches and actions in order to support district transformational
10efforts. In addition to the scheduled sessions, each participant will receive the
support of an Executive Coach throughout the year.
ELI provides a systematic approach to bridge the personal leadership qualities
that were key in past successes to being strategic and successful in central office
leadership roles.
Session Topics include:
Leading Transformational Change
• Collaborate with fellow district leaders on the implementation of the
strategies within Creating a New Vision for Public Education in Texas
• Reflect and plan 1-on-1 with a professional executive coach
•
Systems Thinking in a Collaborative Culture
• Synthesize research from authors and expertise from district leaders with
teams of leaders
• Develop relationships with fellow district leaders through deep learning
discussions and planning
Becoming an Influencer
• Articulate a future-ready plan to transform district leadership culture,
processes, and outcomes
LLI - Professional learning will be provided in layers throughout the year to include
district and campus instructional coaches, academic interventionists and
teachers.
Branching Minds - Professional learning will be provided to campus teams,
interventionists, and teachers throughout the year based on the needs of each
campus.
New PE and Health TEKS Implementation -
The new Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) for health education have
been adopted to guide instruction that allows youth to develop and sustain
health-promoting behaviors throughout their lives. The essential skills that embody
the interconnection of health literacy are within the strands of physical health and
hygiene, mental health and wellness, healthy eating and physical activity, injury
and violence prevention and safety, alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs, and
reproductive and sexual health (Grades 6-12). The health education TEKS should
be presented to students in a positive manner to support the development of a
healthy self-concept and responsible decision-making. The new health TEKS for
11grades K-12 will go into effect fall semester of 2022. Instructional materials to
support the teaching of junior high and high school health have been adopted
as a part of Proclamation 2022. Training on the new standards and the use of
adopted instructional materials will continue throughout the first year of
implementation.
The new Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) for physical education have
been adopted to guide instruction that allows youth to improve physical fitness
and skill development, support and improve academic achievement, reduce
stress and increase blood flow to the brain, strengthen peer relationships, and
improve self-confidence and self-esteem. The physical education TEKS are
categorized into five strands that are of equal importance and value: movement
patterns and movement skills; performance strategies; health, physical activity,
and fitness; social and emotional health; and lifetime wellness. The physical
education TEKS for grades K-12 will go into effect fall semester of 2022.
Instructional materials to support the teaching of the newly created high school
physical education course, Lifetime Fitness and Wellness Pursuits, have been
adopted as a part of Proclamation 2022. In addition to Lifetime Fitness and
Wellness Pursuits, two additional high school physical education courses were
created: Skill-Based Lifetime Activities and Lifetime Recreation and Outdoor
Pursuits. These new courses will begin to be offered in the fall semester of 2022.
Training on the new standards and the use of adopted instructional materials will
continue throughout the first year of implementation.
The Homegrown Intermediate and Junior High School Literacy Institute -
Intermediate and junior high school educators from across the district will
convene between June 27-29 at Grand Oaks High School for collaboration and
learning on all aspects of balanced literacy. Participants will customize their
morning schedule from a range of available breakout sessions and dig deep into
workshop practices through immersive afternoon small group seminars.
The Foundations of CISD Reads & Writes Institute for New Teachers - This institute is
designed for new educators and veterans new to Conroe ISD. Learners will
experience a full day in Elementary Language Arts, participating in each
component of CISD Reads and Writes with carefully-timed micro-PDs built into the
day on topics ranging from workshop environment to building a classroom library.
A full day session in August is followed by half day offerings in October and
February for late hires.
Distinguished School Nursing -The Health Services department provides support,
guidance, training, and varied professional learning opportunities for both the
novice and experienced school nurse. Our comprehensive offerings include
Transitioning to School Nursing providing targeted learning for the new school
nurse on their unique role in the educational setting. We impart the expected
12nursing standards through Standards of Nursing Practice in Conroe ISD to ensure
all students have access to the highest quality nursing care. Based on the
National Association of School Nurses Framework for 21st Century School Nursing
Practice, Health Services provides leadership opportunities for school nurses to
teach colleagues through School Nursing Framework: 5 Principles as well as
presenting a pathway towards distinguished school nursing practice with School
Nursing Framework: Distinguished School Nursing.
13Conroe ISD Instructional Model
14Accountability, Assessment, Evaluation, and Instructional
Materials
The department of Accountability, Assessment, Evaluation, and Instructional Materials is
tasked with providing Texas Education Agency (TEA) mandated trainings in security,
confidentiality and test procedures to all campus testing coordinators. TEA releases a
final testing calendar each year that determines the final scheduling of these required
sessions.
The department of Accountability, Assessment, Evaluation, and Instructional Materials
supports student learning through acquiring, generating, maintaining and disseminating
information and instructional materials in a timely manner. We serve the district at all
levels in measuring and improving student learning for local, state and federal
accountability. In addition, the department works to facilitate and provide professional
development in the use of data systems to support the continuous improvement of
academic and administrative processes.
The department also designs and conducts evaluative studies of district/campus
programs, initiatives, and services, and produces evaluative findings (including student
achievement data). In addition, support is provided for schools identified for
improvement and/or scoring below state target levels. We are honored to work
collaboratively with district and campus leaders in the implementation of school
improvement initiatives.

Bilingual/ESL
The Department of Bilingual and ESL Programs’ fundamental purpose is to guide our
teachers toward best practices that not only serve all students, but that are essential to
Emergent Bilinguals (EBs) in order to acquire English and access content learning. Our
dedicated efforts will be on implementing the teaching of specific language skills into all
core content classes to assist Emergent Bilinguals in their acquisition of English. We will
continue the process of implementing a Content-based ESL Instructional Model in grades
Pre-Kindergarten through 4th grade by which classroom expectations are established and
monitored. The goal, as we look forward, is to encourage implementation and
preparation of teachers at all grade levels through quality professional learning
opportunities. Our Dual Language One-way and Two-way programs continue to grow
and thrive, as we offer students the gift of biliteracy and biculturalism across Conroe ISD.
We have also embedded the instructional coaching component within our professional
learning model, as we know this is the most effective method of implementing quality
instruction. We look forward to continue to share these powerful instructional practices
with more teachers as part of our comprehensive professional learning plan.
