Professional Development Application
Burke's overarching core belief is that pursuit of excellence in the craft of teaching is an institutional priority and that Burke’s teachers are lifelong learners who are invested in ongoing growth as professionals. To this end, teachers reflect on their strengths and challenges, set goals, and pursue professional growth opportunities relevant to their roles within the school, their students’ developmental range, and the education of girls specifically as well as best instructional practice in general. Burke’s fully supports and expects faculty and staff to continuously grow, learn, and collaborate.      

Some important reminders:
  • Be sure to connect with your supervisor about PD you're interested in related to your professional growth, goals, and role at Burke's.  It is important to get verbal approval from your supervisor prior to applying.
  • Local PD is defined as an PD that takes place within 50 miles from Burke's or your home (whichever is closer).  
  • NO per diem is provided for local PD.
  • When booking airfare, be sure to include checked baggage fee (if applicable). 
Any inquiries regarding PD can be sent to Maria and Fran via pd.manager@burkes.org.
