  • MULTIGRADE – An idea so old, it seems new ‘For nearly 150 years the country school was the backbone of American education. As late as 1913 one-half of children were enrolled in the country’s 212,000 one-room schools.’ [oneroomschool.edublogs.org]  Loving to Learn
  •  MENTORING – A plan so sensible, it sounds crazy ‘ Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.’ Benjamin Franklin Learning for Life
  • MASTERY – A vision so clear, it is radical ‘Students with mastery orientation seek to improve their competence. Those with performance orientations seek to prove their competence’ [teachingprofessor.com] Where school is FUN!
