We believe instruction should be holistically focused, developmentally appropriate, and coordinated to applied standards and measures. All children want to learn. All children should be assisted to achieve their maximum potential. All children have worth and dignity as human beings.
All children develop self-confidence through school success.
All children should experience success as a constant factor of education. Curriculum decisions made by teachers in the programs listed below are based on some form of student assessment. We believe that team teaching, common planning time, meeting students' socio-emotional needs and offering connections blocks are all important aspects of a middle grades education. Students, faculty and administrators will be competent users of multiple technology tools and these resources will be seamlessly integrated into our interdisciplinary curriculum.
