CSD TEACHER PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
Cedarburg School District is committed to creating structures and professional learning content to support the roles and responsibilities of each employee. The ultimate goal or focus of our District’s learning is to foster high levels of student engagement and success. A District calendar is developed annually with designated Early Release and Professional Development (PD), and PD/Record days, to create opportunities for more substantive time to learn and apply newly acquired practices and for full department/cross-school learning engagement.
