Teachers, expand your instructional capacity over the summer
As the school year comes to an end, it is time to start thinking about how to expand your instructional capacity over the summer. The district has been re-envisioning what professional learning looks like for teachers, and they have coordinated it into structured, districtwide opportunities.
We also recognize that a teacher’s commitment to learning over the summer should be compensated. Teachers can earn a $100 stipend for attending each full day. Stipends will be received in the October 2022 paycheck.
What is available for the summer that any teacher can attend?
Instructional Impact Institute (I3) July 26-28: Three days of learning opportunities facilitated by departments across the district. Participating teachers will be compensated for participation. Face to face sessions will take place in three locations across the city, and July 25 is an optional kickoff at Delmar Stadium.
Curriculum in the Classroom Camp (C3) August 1-3: Three days of content/grade level-learning focused on unpacking the TEKS, HISD curriculum, and the Canvas platform taking place in multiple locations across the city.
To inform our planning, please take a few minutes to complete this survey to express your interest in participating and share your thoughts about how the district can improve your professional learning experience. Once you complete the survey, they will send you all the details.
