About our LEAD 3-dimensional instructional model:

• CLUSTERS - Grade levels are broken down into clusters, k-2 clusters and 3-5 clusters. Within the cluster, there are 3 teachers who are responsible for the core subject areas; a reading teacher, a math teacher, and a writing teacher. Science and Social Studies are integrated throughout the core subject areas. The teachers instruct students in one content area in grades K-2 and 3-5. The classrooms are not combination classes; they work with specific grade levels separately. The students are in the classrooms for a 90-minute block each day.
• THE LOOP - The clusters work with the same students for 3 years.
• LEARNING STATIONS - after a new concept or unit is introduced through direct instruction, students work independently at three types of learning stations in their classroom. Each classroom has a Computer Station for technology-based work, a Textbook Station for paper/pencil work, and three Activity Stations for hands-on work. There is also a Teacher Station where teachers can pull students for small group tutorials and individual assistance.

Teachers love LEAD because they become subject area specialists and find by focusing on a specific content area, they are able to help their students reach their educational goals in a more efficient manner. We provide annual training for new teachers and on-site coaching, training and professional development throughout the year for all K-5 staff.
