Portrait of a Gladiator
Every school system is unique, but they are connected by a shared aspiration: that all students have an educational experience preparing them to be effective lifelong learners and contributors. The Portrait of a Gladiator at South Allegheny will:
-
serve as a collective vision that articulates the community’s aspirations for all students,
-
be a North Star for system transformation,
-
provide for the acquisition of rigorous academic content,
-
encourage us to be intentional about fostering critical thinking, communication, collaboration, creativity, and other 21st century skills our young people need to thrive in this complex, rapidly changing world,
-
provide strategic direction for the redesign of the overall educational experience for students,
-
reinvigorate and re-engage students, teachers, and community stakeholders.
