Our Schoolwide Learning Expectations (SLEs)

 

The P.E.A.C.E. Schoolwide Learning Expectations at Resurrection are a framework for our students so they are aware of what is expected of them on the road to graduation. The teachers follow these guidelines from junior kindergarten through eighth grade to ensure that each graduating student will meet these goals.

Our P.E.A.C.E. Schoolwide Learning Expectations are derived from the belief that our students should be aware of themselves, and as individuals within a caring community. Resurrection School students are taught to be members of many groups. This includes their own family, Resurrection School and parish, local, national and the global communities. In order to be an effective member of each community, it is important that each student be faith-filled, a lifelong learner, a well-rounded individual and a responsible citizen.
