The brain works better when it can see connections. Connections make something meaningful and give a place for information to be stored. Give them a sense of self worth and belonging. Our school implements this philosophy by organizing teachers on interdisciplinary teams that serve a common group of students. Memorial offers a variety of curriculum and we have a team approach to grouping.
Students belong to a small group.
Our school has teams that meet regularly. We have teams within house areas. Each child is able to touch base with a PRO time teacher everyday.
