Teacher Center Policy Board

Teacher Center Policy Board
The Monroe One Teacher Center is funded by a NYS grant used to provide professional learning for our educators. Our Teacher Center is comprised of 20 Policy Board members who meet to approve our budget, assess our professional learning needs, and collaborate to provide high-quality professional learning opportunities that enrich our teaching practices and improve student learning and achievement.

  • Our Policy Board governs financial and instructional decisions for our Teacher Center. We analyze evaluation data as a group and determine what we will support regarding professional development for the teachers, related service providers and paraeducators of our internal programs. We must maintain 51% teachers/service providers. Our Board consists of 19 members plus the Director. Our Policy Board meetings are open to the public. The dates, times and locations of the meetings are in the calendar on this webpage. If you need further information about a meeting or minutes, please contact Nicki Burgess.
