WELCOME TO LEA!
Welcome to the official web site of the Littleton Education Association, a professional association and an advocate organization for teachers. We are the exclusive bargaining agent for the licensed staff of the Littleton Public School District. We are an affiliate of the Colorado Education Association and the National Education Association.
LEA members are committed to excellence in education and advocate for quality teaching and learning for every student in the district. Teachers are the district’s most valuable asset and make a difference every day with the dedication they exhibit to provide students the highest quality public education.
LEA works to ensure that policies and practices at the school and district levels reflect the values and beliefs of our members. LEA represents its members in contract negotiations, covering wages, hours, and conditions of employment. The association also represents members in grievances, and policy and professional development. We are focused on providing members excellent representation to ensure a great 2012 – 2013 school year in the Littleton Public School District.

Tell Survey results are available at the beginning of April http://tellcolorado.org/
Schools and districts that met the threshold of at least 50% participation in the TELL survey will be able to access survey results at the beginning of April. Schools will receive an embargoed URL to access data to use for school improvement efforts. By the end of April, the TELL data will be available publicly. For support, CDE will host a webinar, post guides on how to unpack the TELL data and weave technical assistance into other opportunities (e.g., use of the data in UIP trainings).
LEA and LPS leadership teams are visiting every school this spring providing Staff Orientation for 2013/14 implementation of the new evaluation system.
The purpose of the staff orientation visits is to clarify the criteria for the new evaluations of teachers on the five professional standards and elements and to build understanding of the key components of the evaluation cycle. It is important that teachers begin to familiarize themselves with the professional practices rubric and the new Draft Evaluation Handbook. Multiple support sessions will be offered to teachers to strengthen their knowledge and understanding of the evaluation standards, elements and practices to ensure a successful implementation year. What should you be doing now? (if you click on this last sentence, can it take you to this page labeled Teacher evaluation?)
