Greetings! This E-Informational Letter is to inform you about how the Professional Learning Approval Process will take place this year in Richland School District One. The purpose is to ensure that we have the best quality professional learning possible that supports our instructional needs as well as the district's strategic plan.

The Professional Learning Process
Steps to the process
Please adhere to the following steps below:
Please fill out the PLA form with all signatures (principals, directors, executive directors, etc.). OIS signs last.
