Professional Development Opportunities
What is our Philosophy of Professional Development?
Professional Development in the Medfield Public Schools operates under the core belief that staff development must be ongoing, job-embedded, and include collaboration and reflection.
With a thoughtful commitment to provide all faculty and staff with professional development opportunities that will...

reflect “best practices” for improving student learning outcomes at all levels
offer education about and practice with strategies addressing current social and emotional issues that shape student success
provide frequent opportunities for collaboration

support teacher’s use of technology to enhance instruction
