We are developing 21st Century Professionals. • Instructional technology:Each classroom has an interactive LCD projector (BenQ) and a document projector. All classrooms have Internet access. We have two student computer labs and computer /Internet access in our Media Center. In addition, our Intervention and Special Education teachers use SMART boards to support their instructional programs. Use of technology such as the BenQ or SMART board brings touch screen interaction to our students and classrooms. Our intent is to better engage students in their learning, thus resulting in increased academic growth and proficiency. We are focused on creating a sustainable technology refresh/replacement plan for the years ahead. • Responsive Classrooms:This approach is intended to build and foster a caring school community. Students begin their day with a Morning Meeting that helps them get to know one another, by name, and helps them share experiences and make stronger connections to their learning. • A school-wide focus on building 21st Century Skills. Including Leadership; ethics; accountability; adaptability; personal productivity; personal responsibility; people skills; self-direction; and social responsibility Global awareness; financial, economic, business, entrepreneurial literacy; civic literacy; and health awareness.
