Students benefit when they are held to clear and appropriate expectations. By providing meaningful and engaging education, we will connect with the strengths and passion for learning of each student. Education must prepare students to become competent individuals and productive citizens. Teachers must understand and address the different learning styles of their students. It is important that our community expects, values and supports excellence in teaching.
Education is a shared responsibility between students, teachers, parents and the community.
We must provide a wide range of learning opportunities for our students and staff to be successful. The quality of the student-teacher relationship directly impacts learning and achievement. Cape Elizabeth Public Schools have become one of the top public school systems in the United States by creating a dynamic organization that inspires and upbeat, innovative and collaborative environment that results in a high level of learning and achievement for all. These tests grew out of the Educational Reform Act of 1984. Students are tested in reading, writing, writing convention, math, science, social studies and humanities.
