NWES Guiding Indicators of Student Success
Student success takes many different forms at Northern Waters. Students are expected to be partner’s in their learning and have the opportunity to collaborate with their learning team to develop a personalized learning plan that meets their needs and addresses their goals. Emphasis is not only placed on mastery and application of academic concepts as they relate to our environment, but also on personal and academic growth.
