In April of 2011, the Pullman Public Schools Board of Directors approved the addition of 7 (half day) Collaboration Days for certified staff each school year. Implemented in the fall of 2011, the Collaboration Days have been highly successful opportunities for our staff to meet as teams to discuss strategies for reaching all students, share ideas and materials, and closely review data related to student achievement. We are thankful to the community for their support of this valuable time for our teachers!
*This Collaboration Plan provides a general overview of the work to be accomplished during Professional Development Days and Collaboration ½ Days for the 2019-2020 school year. As the work gets underway, adjustments or changes to the plan may occur.
