GISU Local Standards Board for Professional Educators
2007-2008
GISU's LSB is operating under a newly revised Plan of
Operations, approved by the district and the Vermont Department of Education
in June 2006. Included below are some of the most relevant changes to the
LSB process incorporated in the newly approved plan. Please see your LSB
representative for details and explanations. A complete copy of the plan is
available on the resources page.
Your LSB representative is available to assist you in
developing your IPDP or seeking approval for the professional development
necessary to meet the goals of your IPDP. Please see your building
representative regarding these and other licensure questions you may have.
Your building representatives for the coming year are:
| Alburgh |
Heather McLeod |
| Grand Isle |
Barbara Carter |
| Isle La Motte |
Diane Creller |
| North Hero |
Dorothy Theriault |
| South Hero |
Sue Althoff |
| Administrator |
Troy Watkins |
In order to serve you better we ask
that you adhere to the following timelines:
- Materials must be submitted to the LSB
representative at least two weeks prior to a board meeting in order for
action to be taken on those materials at the next scheduled meeting.
Meeting dates are listed above.
- Re-licensure materials (IPDPs and portfolios) must
be submitted to the LSB for consideration by the April meeting in order to
receive action by June 30. IPDPs not approved by June 30 will expire,
resulting in a loss of licensure.
- Board requests for revisions to submitted materials
will be communicated in writing to the educator indicating reasons for the
requested revision. Materials must be re-submitted within 60 days of
written notification or by the next meeting.
- Documentation of professional development activities
for which re-licensure credit is sought must be submitted to the LSB
within one year of completion of the specific activity.
- Licensed educators new to the district shall submit
documentation of their professional development activities within six
months of employment.
- It is the responsibility of the educator who has an
approved IPDP from one LSB to transfer his or her IPDP to the new LSB
within six months of employment.
