Educational decisions will be data-driven and responsive to the needs of our entire learning community. Differentiated instruction is centered on children’s needs and interests. Our classroom environments provide engaging, individualized, rigorous, and purposeful learning. All members of the OPES community will continue to guide each student to his or her fullest potential. Educators will address the needs of individual learners through differentiated instruction in an inclusive environment. Student success will be enhanced by nurturing environments that support multiculturalism and diverse learners. OPES will integrate technology to enhance instruction, making it practical and relevant to the real world. Daily use of technology across all instructional areas will teach, engage, and communicate content. We will continue to utilize cutting edge technology, including assistive technology, to differentiate instruction to meet the needs of all learners. Students at Oak Pointe will continue to engage in authentic and purposeful learning by seeing themselves in expert roles, such as scientists, mathematicians, historians, writers, artists, etc. The students’ needs and interests will be met through an inquiry-based approach, where students will be encouraged to take ownership of their learning by questioning, wondering, and investigating.
