Interdisciplinary Team
At each grade level, our teachers are organized into interdisciplinary teams to plan for instruction and to meet the individualized needs of the students in their care. Because teachers share the same students and have a common planning period, they are able to respond more quickly to the needs of individual students though collaboration, meeting jointly with parents, and designing thematic units which foster the transfer of ideas among disciplines and increase relevance. Teachers within a team have a daily common planning period, which allows for team conferences with students and their parents, coordination of grade level activities, and the development of interdisciplinary curriculum units.
