Claxton Faculty Meeting
Tuesday, October 6
ACS District Goals
Expand access to district preschool programs and ensure our preschool students meet district achievement goals.
Academic Achievement
We will strengthen core instruction so that all subgroups will be successful without the need for a supplemental instruction as measured by number of students receiving interventions.
The Whole Child-Resiliency. Adaptation. Success.
Asheville City Schools will assess and restructure operational systems in an effort to address the needs of the whole child by providing opportunities to ensure all students graduate college and/or career ready.
Focus of Today's Racial Equity Training is Implicit Bias
How does today's work support the district goals?
Claxton Elementary School Goals
