📚 Our Big 4 Priorities for Student Success
We’re focusing on four big priorities to help every student succeed:
- Re-designing the middle and high school so classes are more meaningful and challenging
- Helping students build literacy and analytical skills
- Making sure all students can learn and play together
- Giving students the support they need, inside and outside the classroom
Take a look at where we’ve been doing and what's ahead!
