Have you ever wondered what teachers do on Early Release Days? Today we discussed what math proficiency "looks" like across grade levels within a math standard and how each grade level plays an integral part. This vertical teaming strategy focuses on improving student learning.





So proud of these FZ West High student leaders, can't wait to see their impact on our Explorers! #ExplorerNation
