As a result of visionary leadership, a dedicated faculty, hardworking students, and committed parents, Bear possesses many academic and prestigious honors. Together, we will continue a tradition of academic excellence.

As educators, we are passionate about education and supporting the success of all students. I believe that innovative educators, who provide students with opportunities to lead their learning through authentic learning experiences, create great schools. In alignment with our mission statement, I submit students should be engaged and inspired to meet their fullest potential. As an institution, we will work to maintain our STEM accreditation with Cognia. The opportunities provided through theSTEM discipline supports the vision of Bear to motivate students by providing opportunities for them to demonstrate their creativity and utilize critical thinking skills.

To create and maintain an optimal learning environment, teachers and I will participate in shared leadership, evaluate instructional practices, monitor students’ performances, and participate in targeted professional learning to increase our content knowledge and pedagogical practices about STEM. Additionally, we will maintain a collaborative partnership between home and school. Our collaboration and success are not limited to Bear, and we understand the importance of support from a thriving community and local businesses.

We are committed to the work that awaits us! To grow as a beacon in STEM learning, this assignment will require the efforts and cooperation of all of us. Our STEM Student Success Plan for 2022-2025 provides an instructional framework to ensure students achieve every day. Bear Exploration Center is a certified magnet and STEM school. We are committed to STEM learning through all content and specialist areas. We will implement a rigorous curriculum embedded in STEM learning.
