Sallie Jones Elementary is proud to implement a rigorous and relevant curriculum that aligns with the Florida Standards and the Model Schools' Rigor and Relevance framework. This framework emphasizes deep learning experiences that go beyond rote memorization. Educators meticulously plan engaging lessons that bring learning to life through hands-on activities, room transformations, the use of costumes and props, and collaborative discussions and challenges. These dynamic approaches push students to think critically and problem-solve. Our high-performing school, recognized with an "A" grade by the state of Florida, fosters a challenging yet supportive environment where students are encouraged to persevere through complex tasks. Equipped with effective learning strategies and tools, students develop the resilience and critical thinking skills necessary for academic success.
Our school prioritizes data-driven instruction! We meticulously track student, class, and school-wide data to identify areas of strength and areas for improvement. This data informs our goal-setting process, allowing us to tailor our instruction to meet the unique needs of each student. When goals are achieved, we celebrate these successes to motivate and inspire continued academic growth. Our data-driven approach ensures that our curriculum remains relevant and responsive to the evolving needs of our students, preparing them for future academic and personal success.
