Our new Principal who is trained in coaching teachers, is implementing a school-wide academic push that is already showing its results. Garrison has:
Two literacy coaches to support teacher instruction and student learning.
Dedicated science teacher teaching all grades.
Part-time librarian teaching all grades in our new library.
Progressive Early Childhood curriculum that supports development of whole child (social emotional, cognitive, language, physical, literacy and math) through play based learning.
Small guided reading groups supplement Tools of the Mind curriculum from Kindergarten onwards.
Mixed age PS/PK classes, which are best practices in early education.
Low teacher to student ratio (smaller classes)
DC-CAS test scores on the rise. Please note that test scores are an indicator of the achievement of students who are in 3rd, 4th and 5th grade, therefore test scores will be fully impacted by Garrison’s improvements in academic achievement only over the course of the next five years.
"Garrison's focus on literacy has fostered my son's love of books – at 4 he is already starting to read!” Dima Reda (parent)
