The intent of charter schools is to employ innovations that yield superior results. While charter schools can have new and unique approaches to educating students, they cannot deviate from the state standards. One of the chief causes of low student performance is the lack of alignment to state standards. Is your classroom a “Standards-Based Classroom?”
The use of standards streamlines instruction and maps out student expectations so teachers can meet academic learning targets. Together, we will take a look at the instructional processes and implementation needed to develop a standards-based classroom. Register for the symposium here.
This symposium is ideal for new and veteran teachers who are looking to enhance their classroom by incorporating all components of a Standards-Based Classroom. For further information, please contact Shani Vickery at svickery@gacharters.org or 470-236-0671.
