Our Schools and Small Learning Communities
WHAT ARE SMALL LEARNING COMMUNITIES?
Small Learning Communities (SLCs) emphasize small structure and curricular specialization as well as focus on the learner and learning and in particular, the active and collaborative nature of students' and teachers' work. In a Small Learning Community, interdisciplinary teams of teachers assume responsibility for student educational progress across years of school and maximize flexibility to act on the knowledge of students' needs.
This is a form of school structure that is designed to provide more personalized learning to better meet the needs of students. Each SLC shares the same teachers and classes are taught with the emphasis on a theme or career emphasis. Several Small Learning Communities can exist in the same building.
