ICW West exists to equip and empower global citizens, so that our communities are united. Our students are becoming the leaders who will bring a divided world back together, and as a team, it is our responsibility to give them everything they need to do so.We believe that every student, with no exception, can achieve at the highest level, and our Big Goal reflects this - within the next two years, we will ensure that every student is at or above grade level in all subject areas. Right now, many of our students are not at this level. Supporting them in getting there is the focus of everything we do as a team.We believe deeply in being an open enrollment, neighborhood public school, with the responsibility to meet the needs of every student who enrolls, with no exception. Special education students currently make up 23% of our student population.Finally, we believe that being a cohesive team is the way to realize our vision. Building trust with each other enables us to honor the unique perspectives that every team member brings, talk candidly about these perspectives as we commit to decisions, and hold each other accountable for the results our students deserve.
