Setting Description

Although classes my look and feel different from one room to the next, there are common elements that can be found. Organic teaching and social emotional strategies are commonplace throughout all classrooms. All classrooms at HTe practice a morning meeting routine that establishes a positive climate and culture. The High Tech High Five character traits are the focus of instruction at the beginning of each year and are revisted through projects throughout the year. These qualities include; showing empathy, having curiosity, being reflective, having integrity, and having confidence. Take a look at the videos that a first grade class created that focused on the High Tech High 5 core values.
