A CULTURE OF ACHIEVEMENT CONTINUUM LEADING TO PRODUCTIVITY

  • A premise that Metis operates under is that students must become “Self-Regulated” and self-regulation requires two aspects to be in evidence in each classroom and school particularly at the secondary level.  Self-regulation is based on:

  • Behavior that based on well-communicated school and classroom expected behaviors that are taught to students by educators

  • Goal-Focused students

Given these two aspects, there is a civil classroom and school environment that enables time for educators to have productive, goal-focused conversations with students.  Further, the classroom and school becomes a place where there is respect for learning, people, and property and that environment leads to one which is safe, happy, and productive.
Metis has created what is loosely described as a continuum for educators to view their existing environment and from comparison to levels within the continuum determine where they need to apply professional development resources.  There is a goal level of “6” which is when levels 3, 4, and 5 are operational.  Metis provides professional development programs that assure levels 3, 4, and 5 functioning.
