We counted down around the world towards midnight on December 31st, 2016 to welcome the new year. 2017 arrived with the fanfare given to each new year celebration and we turn to it with hope and a positive outlook. Across the US educators and students enjoyed their much deserved Winter Break, and are now in the process of getting ready to go back to school also with hope and a positive outlook.
Goals
MRCR Education has taken time during this Winter Break to look back and reflect on the goals that were set when we began the school year and how we are doing in reaching each of these goals. MRCR Education continues to make education a priority for all and remains committed to share its experience in English Learners, STEAM, and HAST education.
English Learners
Learning English is the most important skill that newcomers face. The acquisition of language skills and knowledge will allow students to become successful in school and as they continue on their path towards both college and career. It will allow them to create and develop a bridge of communication between the education they have acquired thus far and that which they are currently receiving.
STEAM Education
STEAM education continues to become an integral part of the curriculum across many schools. As we continue to embrace the idea that interconnecting disciplines leads to critical thinking and problem solving skills, STEAM will also continue to lead the way we approach teaching this methodology to our students.
HAST Education
There is no time like the present to put forth the humanities in all academic areas and levels of education. HAST, like STEAM, allows for a new approach to achieve this while maintaining high educational standards that allow students to also develop social skills that are critical to become successful members of society such as leadership, empathy, grit, and self-discipline.
Looking Ahead
We look forward to continue to share with you our thoughts and ideas as well as welcome your views, input, and feedback. Thank you for your continued support by visiting our website MRCR Education Site, blog MRCR Education Blog , and Twitter feed MRCR Education on Twitter. We wish all Educators, Administrators, Teachers, Coaches, Support Staff, Students, Parents, Mentors, and all leaders and stakeholders in education a wonderful and successful 2017. Looking forward to the class of 2017 to complete their journey in the near future.
