Strong student-centered instruction requires strong student-centered planning.”“It’s really a partnership between students, staff, and families. When there is a strong partnership between all of the stakeholders, then there is a collective commitment and a collective effort to put one’s best foot forward in the learning process.”“We want to prepare students for a future that we don’t even know exists yet.”
