Theory of Action
If we, in partnership with our community, provide access and opportunity for all students to engage in educational experiences that are rigorous and relevant so that they understand the connections to their lives in the present and the future, and provide caring and supportive relationships to develop, implement, and assess their STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) 10-Year Personalized Pathway Plan and celebrate their progress; students will engage more deeply to acquire the knowledge, skills and behaviors needed to make positive contributions to their local and global community and succeed in college and careers of their choice.
