Horizon Middle School has risen to the challenge of supporting students academically, emotionally, socially, and behaviorally. Great work by a great team!
Wachter Middle School is focused on delivering sustainable interventions in order to support teachers and students. They are asking the hard questions and modeling what a reflective school looks like.
Part of building effective behavior supports is including parents in the conversation. Successful school culture relies on transparent communication and making sure “eduspeak” is made clear to all stakeholders.
