Key Action 1
Increase the number of students performing at the College and Career Ready level as measured by STAAR EOC, AP, ACP, SAT, ACT exams and industry certifications by ensuring students receive high quality first instruction using a PBL model that fosters high levels of engagement supported by technology.
Key Action 2
Throughout the PBL cycle, ensure the curriculum is aligned to standards, accurately assessed and the resulting data utilized to provide improved instructional practice and strategic intervention. Specific attention will be given to underperforming student groups to ensure all students are prepared for a competitive global society.
