Mission Statement:
To provide an exemplary education that inspires and prepares all DoDEA students for success in a dynamic, global environment.

Vision Statement:
Sigonella Elementary School will ensure all students achieve their potential through rigorous, standards-based instruction while developing responsible, global citizens.  All students, staff, and parents will embrace continuous learning in an atmosphere of mutual respect and collaboration.

Target Goals:

1. All Students will improve writing skills across the curriculum.
   We define increasing writing skills as the ability to clearly communicate ideas by effectively using organization and writing conventions.
2. All students will improve math skills across the curriculum.
   We define math skills as the ability to solve problems using appropriated strategies and justify solutions using representations and vocabulary.
   

Interventions:

• Instructional Intervention Goal 1: Writer's Workshop
  Teachers will use the instructional framework of Writer's Workshop to teach the writing process and the 6+1 Traits of Writing with an initial focus on organization, ideas, and conventions.  Writer's Workshop includes mini-lessons, status of the class, time to write, conferencing, and time to share/publish.
• Instructional Intervention Goal 2: Questioning
  Teachers will increase math skills by developing mathematical thinking through the posing of good questions for students to solve and by asking effective, higher-level questions before, during, and after student work time.
