2. Pirie’s Mission
Our mission is to enhance the academic success of
ALL students through the integration of fine arts and
data driven instruction in order to promote college
readiness at all grade levels. Our goal is to ensure
that every student is given an opportunity to learn in
an environment that is safe and provides a
challenging instructional program that is
differentiated, integrated and meets the academic
and social needs of all students to promote success
in future educational and life endeavors.

3. Common Core
standards are:
• Aligned with college and work expectations
• Include rigorous content and application of
knowledge through high order skills
• Build upon strengths and lessons of current state
standards
• Informed by top performing countries, so that all
students are prepared to succeed in our global
economy and society, and
• Evidence and/or research –based.

4. Common Core standards for
English language arts articulate
rigorous grade-level expectations in
the areas of speaking, listening,
reading, and writing to prepare all
students to be college and career
ready, including English language
learners.

5. The standards for the Mathematical Content are a balanced
combination of procedure and understanding. The standards
for mathematics focuses on 8 Mathematical Practices:
1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them
2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively
3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of
others
4. Model with Mathematics
5. Use appropriate tools strategically
