Meeting Guidelines for Excellence 2. We focus on positive outcomes for students.

The Intersection of Common Core State Standards and Student Technology Use  "Students who are college and career ready employ technology thoughtfully to enhance their reading, writing, speaking, listening, and language use. They tailor their searches online to acquire useful information efficiently, and they integrate what they learn using technology with what they learn offline. They are familiar with the strengths and limitations of various technological tools and mediums and can select and use those best suited to their communication goals.”
