Professional Development

Hudson ISD is dedicated to the professional growth of our staff members and shares the responsibility for learning by empowering teachers through support and guidance to ensure the success of all students.  Professional Development focuses on adult learning that results in student achievement.  The mission is to inspire, empower, and promote professional learning that advances educator and student performance.  Professional development is learner-centered, performance-based, results-driven, and job-embedded.  Learning is the centerpiece of our organization.  Partnerships and collaborative planning are keys to continuous improvement.  Understanding the connection between professional development and student learning is vital.


Effective professional development answers the following questions:

  • What do students need to know and be able to do?
  • What do educators need to know and be able to do to ensure student success?
  • What professional development will ensure educators acquire the necessary skills and knowledge?
  • How will we know the impact on student learning?
