Site Visit Committee

In February, a team of eight from the district traveled to California to tour six high schools and meet with a representative from a seventh, to look at best practices in high-performing schools, implementation of 21st century skills, courses, and to establish connections with other high performing campuses.

We toured the following schools:

Palo Alto and Gunn in Palo Alto

Harvard Westlake in Los Angeles

Mt. Carmel, Poway and High Tech High in San Diego (and visited with a representative from Escondido Charter School, as well.)

To read more about these visits, check out posts during the trip from these two blogs:  Twain and Not So Distant Future.

The committee has been sharing a presentation at meetings around the district and is interested in your thoughts or input.

This is an area where we can share ideas, post lists of campuses to visit, place links to those schools or articles, etc!
