1. In the Fall of 2014 Hopedale Jr/Sr High School will be evaluated by an organization called the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC). A team of educators from the New England states will arrive at our school and spend four days conducting a thorough examination of our curriculum, facility, leadership and teaching methods. It is our responsibility to begin a self study of all these areas and present our findings to this visiting team. We are currently working on the schools core values and learning standards, which are outcomes our students are expected to master at each grade level. Our goal is to create standards that will prepare our students for a 21st century workplace. As a result we need student input as to what 21st century standards we should be addressing. WHAT IS NEASC? WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO YOU?
