Non-Negotiable Instructional Expectations
At L.O. Kimberly Elementary, we are committed to ensuring academic excellence and a nurturing environment for all learners. We will adhere to the following non-negotiable instructional expectations:
-
We are a PBIS and SEL School.
We intentionally foster a safe, supportive, and inclusive environment that promotes positive behavior and social-emotional growth. -
We communicate frequently and transparently with all stakeholders.
Clear, honest, and timely communication with students, families, and colleagues builds trust and strengthens our school community. -
Lesson planning is at the core of effective instruction.
We prepare purposeful, standards-aligned lesson plans that reflect the needs of all learners and guide daily teaching decisions. -
Frequent common assessments are used to drive instruction.
We administer ongoing formative and summative assessments and use the data to adjust instruction and meet the needs of all students. -
Our classrooms are positive, organized, and student-focused.
We create learning environments that are structured, welcoming, and centered on student engagement and academic success. -
We deliver high-quality, face-to-face instruction every day.
Consistent, rigorous teaching practices ensure that students receive meaningful learning experiences each day. -
School culture is a shared responsibility.
One person does not create culture; it is cultivated by everyone. Every staff member plays a role in building a respectful, collaborative, and joyful learning environment.
