A.C. Reynolds High School Vision Statements 

Student Learning and Graduation Rate

In order to ensure success for ALL students, A.C. Reynolds High School is committed to the advancement of learning through our Professional Learning Communities (PLCs). In our PLCs, collaborative teams build and sustain comprehensive, rigorous, and clearly articulated curricula consisting of: (1) student learning goals; (2) continuous assessment of progress toward learning goals; (3) evidence-based instructional strategies for the achievement of learning goals; (4) a systematic response to students who struggle to learn or who require enrichment. Through collaboration, teachers commit to collective inquiry, shared practice, self-reflection, and evidence-based decision making. With teacher guidance, students accept increasing responsibility for their learning by knowing their learning goals, assessing their progress, and committing to the achievement of their goals. 

Diversity, Equity, and Access

In order to ensure success for ALL students, A.C. Reynolds High School holds high expectations for every student. We appreciate and value the differences among students and recognize the need to consider individual needs. We provide access and encouragement to ALL students to participate in a wide variety of school activities and academic programs.  Soon entering adulthood, we encourage students to advocate for themselves and their interests. 

Student Climate and Campus Safety

In order to ensure success for ALL Students, A.C. Reynolds High School provides a safe, caring, supportive, and positive climate for students. We have developed a Student Climate Team and a Campus Safety Team composed of a wide representation of stakeholders who assess the areas of need by analyzing student surveys and recommending strategies for continuous improvement of both climate and safety. Equally, through equitable student discipline and consistent high expectations of behavior, strong accountability exists for students that create an unsafe school environment.  Teachers are expected to clearly state classroom and school expectations at the start of each semester, and greatly maintain them throughout the duration of their course.

Professional Climate

A.C. Reynolds High School provides a safe, caring, supportive, positive, and professional school climate for ALL faculty and staff. We have developed a Professional Climate Team composed of a wide representation of stakeholders who assess the areas of need by analyzing faculty and staff satisfaction surveys. This team recommends strategies for continuous improvement of the professional climate.
