articulated vision for PLC inquiry, 2) a purposely planned process, and 3) an effectively-prepared staff for
PLCs and 4) appropriately calendared meetings, 5) appropriately documented findings, and 6) meetings
that are routinely monitored and coached. In this resource, users will find the “PLC Inquiry Protocol”

streamlines teachers’ collaborative inquiry.
