Inspired Teaching Demonstration PCS

Open Since 2011 Grades PK3 - 8
Inspired Teaching Demonstration PCS is a professional learning community of master teachers and teacher residents that ensure a diverse group of students achieve their potential as accomplished learners, thoughtful citizens, and imaginative and inquisitive problem solvers through a demanding, inquiry-based curriculum. Our work and student goals are centered on the four I’s: Intellect, Inquiry, Imagination, and Integrity. Teachers act as facilitators and instigators of thought so students are engaged in hands-on learning through student-centered lessons. Early childhood, elementary, and middle school students become agents of change through a 21st-century curriculum, diversified assessments, renowned partnerships, and engaged families.
