Agenda Item Summary: Since the last School Board meeting, staff reconvened and expanded the Educational Design Team and held its first meeting on November 14th at T.C. Williams High School King Street Campus. The meeting oriented new members and focused on the connection between the ideal ACPS graduate and the Virginia Profile of the Graduate.
Background: The High School Project began in the summer of 2018 and has progressed steadily throughout the past year. On January 24, 2019, the School Board voted to continue The High School Project work with a focus on several priorities and a commitment to a multi-option evaluation process.
Recommendation: The Superintendent has no recommendations for the School Board at this time. The project team will respond to and accommodate inquiries from the Board on an as-needed basis.
