SNAPSHOT
Committing to authentic and innovative learning through integrated courses
Creating integrated courses at all levels across the district

We transform traditional courses into co-taught integrated classes in order to provide students with rich, meaningful educational experiences. These project-based courses enable students to experience the relevant connections between subject areas as they exist in the real world. Examples of these courses are World Cultures/English Language Arts, Civics/English Language Arts, Art/English/Social Studies, and Art/Music. Teachers work as co-designers to facilitate innovative learning experiences that are filled with voice and choice, leading to creative and impactful student work.
