Academics

The Academics department oversees the educational aspects of the district such as curriculum, assessments, and classroom technology.

Our Instructional Vision:

We believe that if we develop leadership capacity through innovative professional learning pathways focused on culturally and linguistically responsive instruction, then all students will have access to the content needed to graduate with the skills and confidence to thrive.  

The Reynolds School District Teaching & Learning Department provides support and services that ensure all students are engaged in relevant, meaningful, and rigorous learning. Our focus on equitable practices, standards-based curriculum, and student-centered classroom environments is designed to close the achievement gap and align to the district’s mission. 

We design curriculum and instruction that ensures best practices and are aligned with the four core beliefs of the Reynolds School District: 

We believe that all students, families, and staff deserve a safe and secure learning environment. We commit to providing physical and emotional safety across the Reynolds community. 

We believe that equitable practices allow everyone within the Reynolds community to thrive. We commit to using equity as a foundation in all decision-making processes in order to eliminate inequities. 

We believe that high-quality first-time instruction will eliminate the achievement gap. We commit to setting high expectations and providing intentional professional development to instructional leaders. 

We believe that the heart of a high-performing organization is its people. We commit to becoming an inclusive and positive organizational culture.

Meeting the learning needs of a diverse group of students requires a variety of programs, tools, and instructional approaches. Reynolds School District offers many programs and systems to support the academic, social-emotional, and physical needs of individual students.
