Forest Creek Elementary School has earned the Marzano High Reliability Schools (HRS) Level Two certification for showcasing effective teaching in every classroom.
The HRS program was created by Marzano Research to help transform schools into organizations that take proactive steps to ensure student success. Using a research-based five-level hierarchy, along with leading and lagging indicators, educators learn to assess, monitor, and confirm the effectiveness of their schools.
“At Forest Creek Elementary, our staff has spent many hours developing our instructional model, viewing lessons on video to identify effective strategies, and collaborating in professional learning communities to create high-quality lessons across all classrooms,” Principal Denise Sharp said. “Receiving Level 2 Certification as one of Marzano’s High Reliability Schools recognizes the hard work, dedication, and the high quality of the teaching staff at Forest Creek. We take pride in our tradition of providing an outstanding educational experience for all students by ensuring that effective instruction occurs in every classroom. I am proud of our amazing teaching staff and their unmatched dedication to their craft, their students, and our school.”
To be certified, schools must collect data and validate their performance to climb each hierarchy level. Certification is determined by Marzano Research analysts in cooperation with school data teams.
