AFG requires the school to base its objectives on a vision of a preferred future. AFG provides for a continuous review of programs and services and allows all members of the school's constituency to participate in the future of the school. An independent visitation team will conduct the review of PHS on April 24,25, and 26, 2001. All students will develop emotionally, intellectually, socially, and physically. Palmerton Area High School will ensure a dynamic and continuously evolving curriculum that fosters the respect of individual differences and the development of life-long learning skills to promote success in an ever changing global society.
Objectives are the school's measurable end results that focus on increasing student achievement.
Specifically, they must state what improvements the school is trying to achieve for students. The purpose of the visit is to validate the district's plan by reviewing the written data, objectives, and process. The visiting team of professionals will interview members of the school and community to determine whether the MSA expectations and standards are being met. AFG is an ongoing process. Palmerton will focus on meeting the requirements of the action plans so that we move closer to achieving our objectives.
