The mission of the Albuquerque Talent Development Secondary Charter School is to provide a talent-nurturing environment that facilitates academic, personal, and social education for the growth and success of every student. ATDSCS will encourage students to become self-motivated, independent, self-directed and lifelong learners in an ever changing world.
ATDSCS is based on research that includes two key elements of effective schools: (1) the curriculum and (2) the learning environment. ATDSCS also believes in providing a culture that focuses on divergent and convergent learning strategies in small learning communities. Our program will focus on many different learning modalities for students in today's educational genre. We will provide Peronal Educational Plans (PEP) for each student which will be self paced and monitored by the teachers. We see each student as an individual and will incorporate many different strategies of curriculum delivery from the traditinoal teacher/student classroom environment, to the use of cyber technology and distance learning that provide either enhancement or remediation for all of our students. The opportunities for the student's achievement are vast as each student will create his/her own success and will rise to his/her level of expectations.
