E2
This year since we have a GT specialist at every campus we are asking them to help us with what we are calling E2 - Enrichment & Extension. GT specialists across the district continue to collaborate with classroom teachers to better meet the needs of all students who have mastered the content being covered in class.
E2 seeks to propel students toward Portrait of a Graduate:
Self-Regulated Learner
Skilled Problem Solver
Effective Communicator
Collaborative Worker
Global Citizen
E2:
Corresponds to Personal Learning Goals
Includes varied learning venues
Enhances excitement toward learning
Promotes self-managed learning
Provides opportunities to explore and develop interests and passions
Focuses on student needs; is student-centered
Is driven by student choice for the purpose of personal growth
Intentionally addresses the needs of the learner
So that:
Learners connect what they love to what they need to be successful through exploring independent strengths, opportunities for academic connections, and skills that are necessary for life, college, and career interests.Yearbook news
