Andrews High School has a direct impact on teaching and learning through…..

An effort-based school improvement initiative founded on the conviction that most students can master rigorous academic and career/technical studies if school leaders and teachers create an environment that motivates students to make the effort to succeed.

GOALS:

~Getting 85 percent of students to meet reading, mathematics and

science goals.

~Teaching students the essential content of the college-preparatory

academic core and a career or academic concentration.

A six step process designed to deepen the professionalcollaboration among staff as they engage in ongoing, job-embedded professional learning teams. Also, to develop initial skills in designing structures and procedures for ongoing, job-embedded, and data-driven professional learning teams that focus on the alignment of curriculum, instruction, and assessment.

GOAL:

~Learn the best approach for working systemically to improve student

achievement in reading and mathematics in high challenge schools.

The Individual Graduation Plan (IGP)

Studies of how young people make educational and career decisions reveal that parents are the #1 influence on their child's career planning. By the 8th grade, all students in South Carolina with the help of their parents and school counselors will be thinking about careers and writing high school academic plans in an Individual Graduation Plan (IGP). The IGP is designed to guide students through career exploration, postsecondary preparation, and workforce transition.

Finding a successful and satisfying career without proper planning can be difficult. South Carolina students begin the Individual Graduation Plan process to answer the question "What do you want to be when you grow up?" by choosing a field of study or profession they are interested in, then developing a plan to guide their high school coursework. The Individual Graduation Plan will be each student's roadmap for achieving his or her career goals—beit technical skill training, college, the military or joining the workforce.

An IGP includes general graduation requirements, out-of-classroom learning opportunities and electives based on each student's chosen field of interest, or cluster of study. South Carolina offers 16 clusters of study based on a national model. Each career cluster is a grouping of related real-world professions. For example, a student interested in being a police officer would select the "Law, Public Safety, Corrections and Security" cluster.
