PRINCIPLES
Learning is personalized—it seeks to address each individual student’s needs, thus providing a learning
experience that is effective, efficient, possible for the student to master and, as a result, motivating.
Students engage actively in their own learning at a deep and personally meaningful level.
Learning is rigorous—it challenges students to meet defined, high expectations, while supporting them
along the way. It has depth and breadth, encompassing content knowledge and the 21st century
skills and dispositions students need to be ready for college, career, and life. Multiple methods of assessment
reinforce learning and build self-awareness.
