VISION OF THE GRADUATE

The Longmeadow High School Vision of the Graduate is a holistic description of the skills, understandings, and dispositions that students should strive to attain by graduation. LHS educators, in conjunction with community stakeholders, identified six competencies that are critical to ensuring students are prepared for future success.

These competencies are embedded into learning activities and experiences across disciplines in the following ways:

• The core competencies are displayed visually throughout the school and emphasized through a variety of school activities and promotions.

• Educators consistently use the terminology of the core competencies in order to familiarize students with their importance.

• Lesson planning and assessments incorporate opportunities for students to demonstrate mastery of the core competencies.

• Students will be given the opportunity to self-assess their progress in achieving the core competencies and reflect on the role they play in their education.
