Key Messages for the Strategic Priority for Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment… • Our core business is teaching and learning with an emphasis on learning for all students. • A Gwinnett education is balanced and rigorous, with core academics as well as technology, the arts, languages, and research. Foundation skills— such as reading, writing, and math— are integrated into other subject areas. • Classroom lessons are innovative, challenging, and engaging for our students. • Everything— from what we teach, to how we teach, to how we measure our students’ progress— is aligned. • Since we can’t improve what we don’t measure, we make appropriate, timely, and ongoing assessments an important part of our improvement plans. Data from assessments helps improve teaching and promotes increased academic achievement. • Our teachers serve a community of learners… students who learn in different ways, on different timelines, individually and in collaboration with their peers. Gwinnett teachers connect curriculum, instruction, and assessment to help all students achieve desired results.
