PCSD Innovators

The PCSD Innovators program is a 2-year professional development commitment that invites participants to explore our fundamental framework—Universal Design for Learning—along with the evaluation and use of educational technologies.

Those who complete the full PCSD Innovators program have the opportunity to receive a stipend, university/district credits, and the majority of the knowledge and skills needed to earn the Educational Technology endorsement alongside invaluable skills for teaching and engaging students.

PCSD Innovators is a competitive-entry program that is open to all PCSD teachers and administrators. The Innovators will meet on the third Thursday of each month (typically) from 4:00-6:00pm at Dixon Middle School. Participants commit to completing readings, collaborating with peers, implementing changes to practice, and reflecting on practice as well as a one-week session in June. The program is open to teachers and administrators.
