Welcome to Florin's Professional Learning Network

This site is intended to be a marketplace for our Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) to:

• communicate about their work
• share research and resources
• connect staff members with expertise to staff needing support
• continue staff professional learning in a personalized and immediate way

Professional Learning Community Defined: A team committed to working collaboratively in ongoing processes of collective inquiry and action research to achieve better results for the students they serve.

Professional Learning Communities function based upon a set of norms - that act as a set of collaboratively defined behaviors to ensure collective knowledge and expertise is accessed and the necessary work gets done.
