#1 Effective and Rigorous Academic and Social-Emotional Tier 1 Instruction in Every Classroom
We believe teaching essential and rigorous grade-level content guarantees student learning. In every classroom, this is evident in a well-planned standards-based lesson, where timely, task related, understandable and actionable feedback is present. Learning targets and goals for students are clear and learning is measured through three levels of participation; discussion, questioning and interacting with relevant tasks.
#2 A Culture of Collective Staff Efficacy
We believe that Professional Learning Communities are the vehicle to gain high levels of learning year after year. Success is achieved by collaborating around a guaranteed and viable curriculum, timely assessment practices, providing additional time, support and extensions, as well as, celebrating the progress of each student and teacher team.
#3 Close Student Learning Gaps Guided by Data
We believe in utilizing data through collaborative teaming to identify students who need additional support. Effective and timely intervention is systematized and embedded within the process to quickly address specific learning needs.
