It’s with enthusiasm that I write this message to all stakeholders. We are
implementing performance based learning, PBL, at our school this year. PBL is
an innovative, student-centered approach to learning. In a performance-based
system, learners work at their performance level and advance through the
curriculum when they have demonstrated proficiency of the required knowledge or
skills.
Therefore, as we transform and address the learning needs in the 21st
Century, we will continue to build strong relationships with learners,
parents/guardians and community members.
We are preparing our learners for jobs that do not yet exist. Additionally,
our learners are digital natives and have information right at their
fingertips. Therefore, we must address teaching and learning differently in
today’s schools.
I believe performance based learning is the very best system to meet the
challenges of the future for our learners.
Please feel free to stop in or call to make an appointment to dialogue about
any suggestions or ideas to make this the best year yet!
In partnership,
Donald G. Trujillo
