PRESENTER: Dr. Chris McGilvery, Perkins Director
LOCATION: East Central BOCES EAST Training Room (in-person only)
DESCRIPTION:
This professional development session will support Business and Hospitality CTE educators in implementing the 2026–2027 ECBOCES CTE Improvement Plan, with an emphasis on integrating evidence-based math, literacy, and science practices into CTE instruction. ECBOCES Math, Literacy, and Science Coaches will provide targeted professional learning and instructional support to help educators incorporate academic practices into authentic CTE lessons, projects, and career-connected learning experiences to strengthen student growth and achievement. CTE educators will collaborate with coaches to utilize pre-made 1-page micro-strategies that are relevant and practical for their individual programs. Participants will deploy these improvement strategies via the Digital Vault throughout the school year—eliminating narrative lesson planning—while identifying the resources, coaching, and instructional support needed for successful implementation. The session will also establish clear expectations for Checkbox Cover Sheets, surveys, and participation requirements. Educators will review the streamlined processes for documenting implementation via the Checkbox Cover Sheets and demonstrating 100% participation in required improvement plan activities.
See attached document this session will focus on.
Lunch will be provided.
