Reach for the Stars and Watch Yourself Grow!

This year at CAS we will intentionally strengthen our learning experiences to empower all students and staff.  

Every CAS learner should feel equipped to take risks and they should feel valued. Providing learning experiences that enhance their independence through voice & choice will create critical thinkers and creative innovators. 

When successful, our learning community will have high quality instruction and professional capacity. 

Over the past 2 years we have laid a solid foundation.  2026-27 is the time to take action & build. 

• Increase student, staff & parent involvement in learning plan through goal setting and achievement (Let Grow); emotional regulation/growth (Zones), and greater involvement in their learning (Project Based Learning)

• Feedback student and staff surveys

• Student & staff voice and choice in planning and goal setting.

High impact moves…….

• Department Leader meetings will consist of reviewing the meeting they had and as a group, plan for the next. This will provide continuity and understanding of the building as a whole. *We will focus on goal setting with an emphasis on curriculum integrity. 

• Each department leader will work with their group to create one department project base learning plan. Great learning opportunity for all.

Adult practices and supports….

• Pull in outside resources, use of collab time will include project based learning planning when possible.  

How will the work happen…..

• Through Department Meetings, Core Meetings, Staff meetings, goal setting, Intervention Block Meetings- all with a common goals and purpose.
