Overview
At ACORN Woodland Elementary (AWE), we employ a variety of strategies to ensure that a solid base of grade level skills are mastered, while fostering creative and critical thinking among our students. We take an interdisciplinary approach to projects, integrating art, science and technology throughout the curriculum. We are systematic about teaching the standards and provide multiple ways for students to reach mastery. AWE scholars develop both character and leadership skills. We explicitly teach our 9 Core Values and provide recognition for students as they demonstrate these values. We also know that the partnership between teachers, staff and parents is vital to ensuring student success. We support our teachers and hold them accountable through peer observations, protocols, weekly collaboration and professional development. In addition, families are valued and respected as integral partners in the AWE school community. We believe that we can maximize the learning for every child when their families are brought in as experts and resources. Community leaders and organizations are also valued as partners throughout the school community.
