Most Important Factor in Student Achievement Students First 2013-2014 • Schools can only be as good as the people within them… • Schools must utilize strategies that result in more good teaching in more classrooms more of the time.
Excellence in Learning • Equity and mutual respect are non-negotiable. • Everyone must accept responsibility for excellence and helping one another. • Learning means providing road maps (collaboration) and partnerships (co-planning) for reaching high expectations. • Success reflects growth and open doors to new experiences and explorations.
