The Ambitious Instruction: Accelerating Learning plan brings the district back to the basics of quality learning and teaching. It unites all content areas around (1) formative practices, (2) explicit instruction, and (3) meaningful student engagement. Each grade level and content area will embrace specific instructional practices around these areas.

The following equity-oriented practices provide the framework for Ambitious Instruction: Accelerating Learning.

• Using high-quality, standards-aligned, district-adopted instructional materials
• Focusing on culturally and linguistically responsive teaching practices that promote learning
• Leveraging technology to empower students to create, collaborate, communicate, and think critically
