On Team Revolution, we firmly believe in the presence of key pillars of success that can nurture students' skills, guiding them through junior high and beyond. This academic year, our focus will be on one pillar per month, dedicating time to explicitly teaching the skill and emphasizing its significance to students.
By year-end, not only will Revolution students have acquired subject-specific academic knowledge, but they will also have honed their abilities, becoming more adept learners equipped for lifelong success.
We request your support in guiding our students as they develop each of these skills this year. As eighth graders, students should be working on taking ownership of their education. By following these pillars, it is our hope that students can become independent learners, while still valuing the support and guidance of their parents and educators.
Thank you,
Team Revolution Teachers
