This is a great question with a complex answer. At its heart, it is our belief that a student’s potential is unknown and that we can each become our best self over the course of time if we are prepared to be challenged and to challenge others. We embrace a knowledge-rich curriculum that says that knowledge is the rocket fuel of great thoughts, which concludes that the greater our knowledge then the farther those thoughts will soar. In the classroom, teachers are committed to a high-TEMP learning environment; this refers to us crafting highly engaging Task design, super-clear Explanations, Models of completed activities that show students what excellence looks like, and opportunities created for students to Practice with support and increasing levels of independence.
