Lisa England, who presented the Science Department update, said the department implemented a new zoology class and is using a co-taught model in which about 60% of students do not require additional support and about 40% do. She said professional learning communities (PLCs) remain active across the department.
England also said the department is changing its tests to ACT-style questions to better align assessments with college-admissions formats. The committee recorded these curricular changes during its review of department goals; no formal motions or votes were taken on the report.
