SCHOOL IMPROVEMENT PLAN

Each DDESS school develops a plan to improve the educational program offered to its students. The faculty assesses student's academic and social needs, set goals toward meeting those needs, and determines the resources available. A committee of faculty members and parents guides this process of school improvement, monitoring and assessing progress toward goal attainment. Our two school improvement goals are:

Goal 1: All students improve their problem solving skills across the curriculum.

Goal 2: All students increase their reading comprehension skills across the curriculum.
