Academic Achievement Plan
The Academic Achievement Plan outlines a strategy for various schools to enhance student learning, structured around two primary goals: creating data-driven multi-tiered action plans and identifying site-specific strategies to address academic gaps. It details actions focused on improving literacy and mathematics through professional development, targeted interventions, data analysis, and the integration of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) strategies. The plan addresses curriculum review, academic integrity, and providing academic and executive functioning support to students across Tri-Schools (Beach Havens Wildwood) and Secondary Schools (Piedmont Middle, Millennium High, Piedmont High).
