Episode 11 of the Kansas State Department of Education’s “Insight Podcast” is now available.
Teaching is not for the faint of heart.
“Teachers make 1,500 decisions a day,” said Kara Belew, a 2020 Kansas Teacher of the Year finalist. “It can be exhausting. But if you set your expectations, people will meet them.”
Belew, who teaches government at Andover Central High School, Andover Unified School District 385, was one of three certified teachers leading a group of registered teacher apprentices during an academy this week in Topeka. The event was at the Topeka Center for Advanced Learning & Careers, or TCALC, part of Topeka USD 501.
The Kansas State Department of Education’s (KSDE) Professional Development (PD) Planning program has received numerous questions from districts regarding the use of PD points for movement on the district salary schedule. Specific guidance is embedded within the PD plan review process to distinguish awarding PD points for renewal and districts policies towards salary movement based on PD points.
