Introduction

The goal of the Placer County Office of Education's Equity, Innovation, and Support (EIS) department is to work together with teachers and administrators to provide a comprehensive, systematic, rigorous and relevant education to all students in Placer County. Our department provides professional development around the implementation of content standards curriculum, English language development, professional learning communities, multi-tiered systems of support, coaching and more.

Our comprehensive approach to professional development includes professional development training, lesson study, and coaching. Additionally, the Equity, Innovation, and Support (EIS) department provides a system of support for schools and districts which includes content expertise, continuous improvement facilitation and implementation support.

Learning Acceleration

The Placer County Office of Education is leading a cutting-edge approach to close post-pandemic learning gaps, using accelerated learning to bring students up to speed. Accelerated learning means that students receive high-quality instruction in the grade-level content of their grade while also providing some supports to fill the gaps in prior learning.

Accelerated learning strategically prepares students for success with a targeted, individualized system of scaffolds and supports that identify and prioritize past concepts and skills in the context of current learning.
