9总探花

During the 2017-18 school year, the 9总探花 set out to consider the question: What is most important for our students to know and be able to do? In Spring 2018, a task force of more than 50 members of the WPS community developed a so-called “Profile of a Graduate” in partnership with EdLeader21 director .

The competencies outlined in the Profile of a Graduate, along with the 9总探花 core valuesacademic excellence, commitment to community, respect for human differences, cooperative and caring relationships – will be foundational to the long-term strategic vision for the district.

The competencies in the Profile of a Graduate range from cognitive (critical thinking, creativity/innovation), to interpersonal (communications, collaboration, engaging locally and globally) to personal (attending to physical, mental and emotional health). Since the development of the Profile of a Graduate, WPS has contemplated also incorporating the concept of “student agency” into the POG. An environment that develops student agency is one that encourages self-advocacy, as well as creates opportunities for student voice and choice.
