Academics are at the core of the Scappoose School District, with the goal of having each educator, parent, and the greater community collectively contribute to cultivating passionate lifelong learners for an ever-changing world.
The Student Achievement Team is committed to providing multi-tiered systems of support that allow us to meet the needs of the individual child to create optimal learning experiences. We carefully select guaranteed and viable curriculum that supports learning through aligned academic standards, student-friendly learning targets, and highly effective teaching strategies. The Continuous Improvement Plan (CIP), SSD Strategic Plan, and Federal IA and IIA Programs are also under the umbrella of this department.
Our department strives to ensure instructional leadership and coaching of our staff so they may deliver quality instruction. SSD is grounded in evidence-based practices that strengthen the academic core and address the learning needs of every student. The team is focused on professional development for all staff members to ensure they are prepared for 21st-century teaching and learning.
