The Monticello School District realizes that it cannot graduate successful students without having professional, motivated, and intelligent teachers to guide and teach.  Therefore, the district hade made it a priority to offer all teachers the opportunity for staff development. 

Programs offered last year included:

• Literacy Collaborative, in partnership with Lesley College
• Literacy Collaborative training, led by staff trainer Susan Gottlieb. The coordinator offers support to teachers on Superintendent conference days, through study groups, biweekly classes, observations, in-class demonstration lessons, and coaching. New teachers are trained each year. 
• New York State Reading Academy, an online course that provides teachers with effective methods of reading instruction and techniques to monitor student progress. 
• Wilson Training
