School-Wide Instructional Focus

"Know where you are, but don't stay there." - Dr. Battle, Superintendent MNPS

Teachers will assign tasks as written prior to providing supports so that students will be able to persevere when tasks are challenging to solve problems independently and/or collaboratively with peers. Students will show mastery of the unit goals as evidenced by formative and summative assessments in both reading and math instruction.
