Our purpose:
The Teaching and Learning Team ensures that the district’s curriculum remains relevant, research-based, and allows students multiple pathways to show their learning through high-quality instructional teaching methods.
Our vision:
To collaboratively create the structures and systems necessary to support a cohesive high-quality teaching and learning environment for staff and students.
Our work is:
- Student-centered with learning at the forefront;
- About intentionality, coherence, and alignment;
- Driven by meaningful reflection and thoughtful decision-making;
- Inclusive of all learners;
- Built around an understanding that learning is the constant and time is the variable;
- About giving teachers agency, allowing them to think critically about teaching and learning;
- Authentic; We are willing to model, try, and do the work as well;
- Leading vs. managing; Doing vs. watching; Transformational vs. transactional; Proactive vs. reactive.
Our guiding questions:
- What is high quality teaching and learning?
- What does high quality teaching and learning look like at each grade level? in each content area? for each student?
- How do we ensure all students are provided with high quality learning experiences?
- How do we build the capacity and efficacy of our staff to actualize high quality teaching and learning in each and every classroom?
- How do we create efficient and effective systems of communication?
