CORE COMPETENCIES
OUR MOST VALUED ASPECTS OF EDUCATION
LEARNING BY DOING
VOCABULARY | PRACTICE | ASSESS
In the beginning of each section, we cover the vocabulary for a basis of the section. Then we practice the vocabulary with a series of activities that make students use the vocabulary. We apply real-world applications to this during learning and assessment.
CAREER
THEORY
STARTING WITH PA
Each unit has a lab associated with it that ties to PA companies. Students need to know how everything applies to the world. The goal is to never have students ask why we are learning something.
COMMUNITY
WE GROW TOGETHER
Collaboration is needed to help all students achieve at a high level. Expectations are high in class. Reciprocity is shown through support inside and outside of the school. Families and teachers work as a team to educate their learners.
