Overview
Stamford is committed to providing highly effective and rigorous literacy instruction to prepare all students for the 21st century. Instruction is delivered through the workshop model. Daily rituals and routines are established and practiced enabling students to function independently with a high level of accountability. A natural effect of the workshop model is a gradual release of responsibility from teacher directed modeling to student directed work, which leaves teachers more time to devote to individual and small group instruction.
