    Facility

    • The custodial and maintenance staff do an excellent job of keeping our school and campus neat and clean.
    • Our facility was built in 2011.

    Academics

    • All report cards are standards based. They are derived from grade level standards, according to the Alabama Course of Study. By using a standards-based grading and reporting system, we can readily identify academic strengths and weaknesses and communicate this to parents.
    • Our students participate in Student Led Conferences three times during a school year. During this time, students will explain their progress in their grade level toward meeting learning targets to their parents. They will be able to explain strengths and weaknesses with grade-level skills.This is a time to celebrate learning.

    • Students who experience difficulty with a subject are offered differentiated instruction through tiers of delivery.
