Pre-K to 3rd grade teachers and ES administrators are invited to apply for a Fall 2023 virtual Professional Learning Community (PLC).  The PLC will introduce a resource tool which aligns the Nevada Educator Performance Framework (NEPF) and the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC)  Developmentally Appropriate Practice (DAP) standards.  The resource tool includes video examples of what developmentally appropriate practice may look like for K-3 settings for each indicator in the NEPF.  Participants will be compensated for their PLC time and will be asked to engage in reflective practice, and develop an action plan for sharing the resource tool within their individual contexts.

Applications close on Friday, August 18, 2023. The PLC will begin Monday, September 11, 2023.  For more information and to apply, please visit the following link:
