Additionally, our district continued to transform classrooms and schools to meet the individual needs of our students. At this time, two-thirds of our schools are either charter schools or programs of choice, offering students learning experiences that are relevant to their interests and talents. It was not surprising that in January we were recognized as the fastest growing charter school district in the entire nation. Much remains to be accomplished. The planet is in the midst of unprecedented challenge and change. Businesses, public entities and communities desperately need people that have the ability to innovate and create new solutions for our ever-increasing complex world. Simultaneously, we must not neglect teaching students the ideals and traditions that have made our country great. To meet that need, we will continue to focus our efforts on increasing levels of authentic intellectual work and creative problem solving opportunities for our students.
