Wadsworth Middle School: District Context

Students earn high scores on standardized tests, making this fast-growing district one of the highest achieving in the state. To build on its success, the Wadsworth School District has implemented a learning improvement calendar this year which supports collaborative planning and teamwork among teachers. The district starts school later on Wednesday mornings to give teachers the time for this development, although teachers are free to use the time as they wish.
