University of Georgia and Clarke County School District: Creating a Dynamic and Sustainable District-Wide Partnership
Dresden, Janna; Gilbertson, Erica; Tavernier, Mark
School-University Partnerships, v9 n1 p3-6 Spr 2016
The UGA/CCSD Professional Development School District (PDSD) partnership began in 2009 with one school, and has grown to serve all schools in the district. The premise of the PDSD is that equity is achieved by providing high quality education for all students through programs and processes that are emergent, organic, dynamic and collaborative. All stakeholders share the goal of long-term sustainability and have developed a creative cost-sharing model towards this end. The PDSD partnership has fostered the use of clinically-rich practices that support teacher candidates. In addition, several innovative extensions have grown out of the on-going collaboration between UGA and CCSD.
