Middleton Cross Plains Professional Development Plan

Middleton Cross Plains School District 60K PDF, via a kind reader:

In a more concerted effort to enhance the manner in which our students are taught to become contributing members of a global society, we would like our schools to emphasize:
  • The interconnectedness of the world's cultures, politics, and economics.
  • Recognizing, analyzing, and evaluating trends in global relationships.
  • Creative problem solving, critical thinking, and innovative thought processes.
  • Understanding issues from cultural perspectives other than our own.
  • Encouraging study and travel abroad.
  • Technical competence and the critical impact that technology has had in our world.
  • Technological innovation that can expand curriculum, opportunity, and our students' world view.
  • Outreach to the community for resources and expertise to further global awareness.
  • The role of world languages in preparing students for an international environment. Consideration of Chinese as a new curricular offering.
It is our hope that all students are touched by this initiative, in all courses and at all levels of our curriculum. We appreciate any innovation that can be brought to our students to achieve this goal.
