Our Values - School Wide Learning Outcomes
ESLRs (Expected School wide Learning Results) or SLO's (School wide Learner Outcomes)
A Larchmont Charter School graduate is a lifelong learner who...
Demonstrates respect...
for other students,
for oneself,
for teachers,
for school materials,
for the school site,
for one’s family and community,
for the environment,
living beings,
& the earth’s resources.
Takes responsibility...
for one’s actions,
for one’s words,
for one’s learning,
for one another,
for the health of
one’s body and mind.
Perseveres...
when problems cannot be solved readily,
when faced with criticism and disappointment,
to work through struggles and setbacks,
by attempting trials:
examining errors, trying harder,
trying differently, then trying again.
Seeks to understand...
by formulating questions,
by pursuing answers,
by reading critically and thoughtfully,
as a reflective learner,
the perspectives of a world community.
Communicates effectively...
by writing clearly,
by listening and hearing others,
by expressing oneself honestly and
through many artistic frameworks.
