Theme for 2011 - 2012:
"Year of the Dolphin"
This year, we will again focus on teamwork, and you will see:
- Teachers who are knowledgeable about the latest teaching methodologies and who have proven track records in delivering challenging, student-centered courses.
- You will see teachers lecturing less and providing more group work and creative hands-on learning opportunities, including activities that promote interaction between grade levels.
- A distinct 6-12 Upper School that will have a more age-appropriate schedule and programs that have been proven successful for young adolescents. The schedule will include rotational exploratory opportunities in areas such as advanced technology, study skills, and a variety of fine arts classes.
- More student support by teachers who differentiate in the classroom, and more team planning among our teaching staff in order to reach both the lowest and highest students.
- Continued use of ELM’s multi-age, mastery-based flexible grouping system which has helped us transition many non-native English speakers into our program successfully, while also allowing us to challenge our highest-performing students.
- A school-wide focus on reading!
