ASP Information
What is ASP?
ASP stands for Accelerated Schools Plus. In an Accelerated School , all members of the school community are invited to share in the leadership of the school. The parents, the students, school staff members, and community members develop the vision for the school; understand its challenges and work together to achieve its goals. Accelerated Schools are based on the following three principles:
UNITY OF PURPOSE– The whole school community decides on the goals for the school which become the target for everyone's efforts. Everyone in the school is pulling in the same direction.
EMPOWERMENT COUPLED WITH RESPONSIBILITY– All members of the school community help to make important educational decisions, share responsibility for implementing those decisions, and share responsibility for the outcome of those decisions.
BUILDING ON STRENGTHS
There is a
commitment to looking for and building on each person's strengths in the
school community.
When functioning under the ASP guidelines, the educational environment hosts monthly SAW (School As a Whole) meetings. Please see the attached SAW meeting agendas and minutes. Please contact the MSSC office if interested in attending the next SAW meeting at 619-798-5113.
