Academic Goals

We will continue to work toward a Professional Learning Community: An ongoing process in which educators works collaboratively in recurring cycle of collective inquiry and action research to achieve better results for the students they serve. The adults in the organization are the lead learners.
1. We will continue to build our knowledge in the state of Wisconsin’s Strategic Assessment System. http://dpi.wi.gov/strategic-assessment
Disciplinary Literacy in every content area: In Wisconsin, disciplinary literacy is defined as the confluence of content knowledge, experiences, and skills merged with the ability to read, write, listen, speak, think critically and perform in a way that is meaningful within the context of a given field. These abilities are important in ALL courses and subjects.
