Committed to Excellence in Education for Every Learner, Every Day

At Lake City Area Schools we strive to provide the best education for every student, every day. Standards-Based Learning is an approach to education that focuses on students' learning that is clear, feedback driven, and individualized.


Standards-Based Learning gives families, students, and educators a meaningful picture of student learning. Instead of relying on a single letter, this approach to learning highlights the specific skills and concepts students are expected to learn and shows exactly where they are in that journey.


Standards-Based Learning creates a learning culture that includes:

    • Clear and measurable learning standards

    • Detailed learning progressions which leads the learner to the overall goal

    • Specific feedback on what students know how to do and/or what support is still needed

  • Opportunities for individualized learning progressions

What's the Difference?

  • Letter grades summarize the past. Standards-Based Learning guides what comes next.

  • Replacing letter grades with clear learning goals helps students learn how to learn - understanding what they know, what they don't, and what they're ready to learn.

  • Standards-based learning invites students to think courageously, reflect purposefully, and take charge of their next steps.

  • When we stop chasing letters, we finally start chasing learning.
