Scio Teachers are “Making the Connections”…between students, teachers, and parents with Schools Attuned®.

Many students in our districts struggle in school because of their unique learning profile and the mismatch between that profile and what students are receiving instructionally in school. The Schools Attuned® Program reflects the most current, research-based principles of professional development that changes teaching practice and has a positive impact on student outcomes and learning profiles.

The district leadership, faculty and parents at Scio Central School are committed to observing and working with students on specific strengths and weaknesses defining their unique neurodevelopmental profile. This approach will surround and support the students in Scio with a strong commitment to understanding and working their strengths and weaknesses in the classroom and at home. The Scio community of students, teachers, leadership and parents are beginning a year long initiative of implementation in neurodevelopmental thinking that will include: Learning about Learning workshops for parents, Learning about Learning lesson studies in neurodevelopmental thinking with teachers, and the All Kinds of Minds Fair for students.
