At Aurora we not only aim to provide the best academics possible, we also strive to build up youth who take responsibility for themselves and become model citizens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-grid wp-container-core-group-is-layout-18 wp-block-group-is-layout-grid\"><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group family-community-highlights\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Family and Community Engagements\/Highlights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Aurora firmly believe that the success of students starts in the home. When families are actively involved, students often demonstrate higher academic success. Parents and staff work hand in hand to make sure each student has the best possible chance at learning. We have opportunities for family members to volunteer within the school. Additionally, we have community members who visit our school to share with our students about everything from local geography and animals to different cultures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-grid wp-container-core-group-is-layout-20 wp-block-group-is-layout-grid\"><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group school-profile-goals\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Goals for the year<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>By the end of the school year, we will assist 100% of students to move one Tier up who are in either Tier II or III in the mCLASS assessment in grades K-3.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>By the end of the school year, 100% of the students identified will be at least at the 50 percentile for their grade level as measured by the NWEA MAP math and reading Spring Benchmark assessment.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\"><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aurora Borealis Charter School Home of the Polar Bears!
