The Common Core Café’s purpose is to
guarantee that all students receive a content-rich education in the full range
of the liberal arts and sciences, including English, mathematics, history, the
arts, science, and foreign languages. The Common Core Café’s team members will
work with teachers to create instructional materials, conduct research, and
promote policies that support a comprehensive and high-quality education in Montebello
Unified School District. We will accomplish this by using cutting-edge,
research-based and technological practices in a strong, proactive partnership
with MUSD administrators, MTA, and CTA ensuring a continuum of best practices
to enhance the classroom instruction.
The
Café’s foundation will also build on the MUSD’s recently adopted Comprehensive Learning Framework whose
purpose is also to “…better anchor, monitor, and to celebrate the work of every
individual, division and organization throughout the MUSD.” There are two key strategies
aligned to both initiatives that will assist in having successful outcomes: 1) effective
implementation and utilization of data to drive student and teacher success,
and 2) MUSD key stakeholder and teacher involvement through project engagement
will increase the parameters of success.
The
project’s plan includes integrating technology across the curriculum that will
help us meet the requirements of the Montebello Unified School District
2010-2015 District Technology Plan and the U.S. Department of Education Goals
2013- 2014 Plan.
