“It is the people that make our school so special. We work together to coordinate a multi-tiered system of supports for students. From our front office staff to our cleaning team, everyone works together to support teachers and students and their success. We use data to drive our instructional decision making and there is an infrastructure available to ensure the collaborative time to use the problem-solving process to make sure that we are adjusting to students' needs. There is an ultimate belief that the responsibility is with us to adjust to student need and have a 'no excuse mentality' to reach proficiency, happiness, and become a good citizen. We use multiple assessment data to also drive budget decisions and resource/personnel allocation. Every child can and will be ready for college and a career in the 21st century!”
