The Arkadelphia School District Guiding Coalition gathered for their August meeting. Administrators and Instructional Facilitators meet every month as a Professional Learning Community to analyze the work that is being done in PLCs at our campuses and collaborate on the continued growth of our PLC process. Each school has a Guiding Coalition that works together on the PLC process at their school.
