T-PESS was designed to give principals meaningful and manageable guidance as they chart their own course for professional growth and development, ultimately benefitting student success in their schools. This 1-day training is required for anyone who will appraise principals. Principals who will be appraised with T-PESS may also take this 1- day training to deepen their understanding of the appraisal process, including engaging in an orientation, completing a self-assessment, composing a professional development plan, and setting improvement goals. Please call (956) 984-6038 if you have questions or would still like to register if the workshop is closed. Payment methods will be accepted by purchase order or Credit Card through PayPal. *Please email the district purchase order directly to dgracia@esc1.net . Self Paying participants will pay by money order on-line. No Cash Accepted. Please note this training is for appraisal certification and if any part of this training is missed, you will need to reschedule for another training date, therefore, be ready to begin promptly at 8:30 a.m.
