During Morning Meeting on Friday, October 27, Head of School Cathy McGehee announced that STEM teacher Dr. James Sweeney was recognized by the Modern Classrooms Project as a Distinguished Modern Classroom Educator for implementing a blended-learning, self-paced and mastery-based instructional model in his Algebra II courses.
This peer-review selection process involved Dr. Sweeny submitting a portfolio that was evaluated for the effectiveness of his curriculum in challenging and supporting students in their development of deeper content mastery.
