Background: At the Board’s direction, the structure of the 2019-2020 monthly region showcase item has been enhanced to provide a thorough picture of each region as it is presented on a monthly basis. This will include goals as well as progress in attaining them. In addition, strategies that are being successfully implemented within the region and that may be replicated will be included.

This month, the Northwest Region is featured. The region, which serves approximately 9,074 students this year, is comprised of 23 schools, ranging from traditional K-8 schools, K-5 schools, International Baccalaureate (IB) candidacy, Montessori, language immersion and STEM-focused schools. The schools include the following: Barton, Bryant, Carson Academy, Congress, Craig Montessori, Eighty-First Street, Emerson, Engleburg, Goodrich, Grantosa, Hampton, Hawthorne, Kilbourn, Kluge, Maple Tree, Milwaukee German Immersion, Milwaukee Sign Language, Ninety-Fifth Street, Parkview, River Trail, Stuart, Thoreau, and Thurston Woods. Student diversity is our biggest strength in the Northwest Region.

The Northwest Region showcase will also highlight the programs and progress of Bryant Elementary at the March meeting. We will share points of pride from the work of the innovative staff, the successes of our students, and the unique features the school program offers.
