Our Pathway to Success Model

We have identified a series of milestones associated with a "Pathway to Success," intended to track each student’s progress throughout their academic career. This pathway will assist us in communicating academic expectations with students, parents, community and faculty. Within this framework, we, along with our District Leadership Team, will develop strategic initiatives and action steps that will support defined learning targets.
