Instructional Focus
Our school wide focus is writing to demonstrate comprehension of fiction and nonfiction literature/text within an interdisciplinary approach with an emphasis on open response writing. This will be achieved through consistent and systematic use of a set of school wide best practices. Our Focus will be measured by school wide writing assessments in addition to varied formative and summative assessments at each grade level.
