Achieving excellence in education requires analyses of test results from year to year.This is done during our county Data Days, during which teachers disaggregate test scores to determine where strengths and weaknesses lie.This research identifies our weakest CSOs and identifies where we need to place emphases for the next school year, listsstudents who need extra assistance to help them improve, and suggests the need to adjust our teaching strategies to improve student achievement.
At Johnson, we provide our children with as many educational and learning opportunities as possible to ensure that we reach and help all children with their needs, whether they be academic, social, emotional, or disciplinary.We strive to help them, as they mature, to contribute to their communities and succeed in a changing technical world.
Our mission indicates the school’s priority to engage all children, provide enrichment opportunities, focus upon CSOs and 21st century skills, and give guidance and direction.The ultimate goal is that our students move on to successful further education and / or training, fully participating as citizens of their communities, their country, and the world, achieving success as adults and lifelong learners.
