We believe that all students can learn and what we teach them should help
them to be successful in a morally-based knowledge society. We will provide
a variety of learning experiences both in the classroom and out within the
community that will help them develop a disposition of continuous problem
solving and improvement. These experiences will include integrated units and
community service projects.
Unifying Themes provide teachers and students with a scaffold on which to
organize the details of standards. Topics we will be integrating are:
Sense of Place - Our River Connections
Baseball as America (yearlong)
Immigration
World War II
Olympics/Winter World Championships
Civility
Community Service in which we will engage include:
Service at The Table of Plenty Soup Kitchen
Veteran's Appreciation
Advisory Community Service Days
Hunger Awareness
Sharing Talents and Gifts
