We have done our best to make this site accessible. Your school has clear, high goals or standards for all students - at least as high as state or national standards. Teachers, parents and students have samples of student work that meet the standards.
Teachers expect all students to reach the standards.
They use curriculum and teaching strategies that correlate to the standards so that students are being taught what they are expected to learn. The school supports its teachers and other staff with regular professional development and support, devoting at least 10 percent toward this end. The school is organized to identity students having difficulty meeting standards and to provide timely assistance. Students who need extra time or assistance get it. The school has a comprehensive written plan describing how students are doing, what the school community is doing to improve student achievement, and how the school gets critical feedback from business, higher education or other outside advisors.
