Our Purpose
The ELA team is committed to supporting effective literacy instruction in our schools by fostering students' success as both readers and writers. Through collaborative work with teachers, instructional coaches, and administrators, the team is dedicated to enhancing student language skills by using an integrated approach to reading and writing instruction that aligns with state standards and promotes best practices in the field.
 
Our Purpose
The study of world languages is an essential part of education. In the 21st century language classroom, students gain an understanding of two basic aspects of human existence: the nature of communication and the complexity of culture. Students become aware of multiple perspectives and means of expression, which lead to an appreciation of difference and diversity. Further benefits of foreign language study include stronger cognitive development, increased creativity, and divergent thinking. Students who effectively communicate in more than one language, with an appropriate understanding of cultural context, are globally literate and possess the attributes of successful participants in the world community.
