FACULTY SECTION
PLC WISDOM OF THE DAY: Having high expectations is having the confident belief that that all students can attain mastery of the essential learning and that the staff has the capability to help all students achieve that mastery. High expectations for success will be judged, not only by the initial staff beliefs and behavior, but also by the organization’s response when some students do not learn. (Radford)
