Portrait of a Graduate: In 2020, Springfield Local Schools assembled a Portrait of a Graduate Design Team to explore:
- the hopes, dreams, and aspirations that our district collaborators have for our young people
- the skills and mindsets that our children need for success in this rapidly changing and complex word
- the implications for the design of the learning experiences; equitable access to the experiences provided in our school district.
The team identified and defined six specific competencies desired for all Springfield graduates: Adaptability, Communication, Critical Thinking, Integrity, Leadership, and Perseverance. TO learn more, please select the following link.
