Mission
Our Mission is to continuously improve the Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools’ capacity to provide students with standards based, content rich, engaging school work everyday. We will accomplish this mission through a comprehensive professional learning program designed to build leadership skills and knowledge and to provide support for both certified and classified personnel.

We Believe
  • Learning is a lifelong process.
  • Professional Learning is central to the fulfillment of the educational vision and beliefs of the school system.
  • Professional Learning is co-delivered through district level staff, principals, teachers and support staff.
  • Leadership is essential and should be taught and supported through staff development opportunities for all personnel.
  • Training and development opportunities should be available to all employees and accessible to the broader community.
  • Professional Learning should link training and development to providing students with quality work and a safe environment.
