Collaborative Inquiry/Learning Partners

Mission/Purpose of Collaborative Inquiry/Learning Partners Department

Our mission is to provide our colleagues, both new and experienced, with an additional resource, or forum in which to collaborate and communicate in a reciprocal, non-evaluative, supportive, reflective and confidential manner. Learning Partners facilitate and supports peer-mentoring, collaboration and teacher inquiry. We are able to provide teachers with valuable release time, allowing them to connect and share within the challenging structure of our extended day schedule.
