A top-tier school in New York City. Teaching and learning through dual language immersion and challenging interdisciplinary projects. A culture of creativity, entrepreneurship and deep collaboration. State-of-the-art technology throughout. Brilliant colleagues, with widely diverse experience, creating a unique educational experience together. There is no place quite like Avenues.
DEEP COLLABORATION THROUGH LANGUAGE IMMERSION
Collaboration here isn't a buzzword: it's woven into everything we do given that our students in grades 1-5 alternate their days between their English and Target Language classrooms.
Teacher teams composed of English and Spanish teachers or English and Chinese teachers share two classes of students.
Teacher teams share responsibility for teaching curriculum that promotes their students’ social, emotional and academic growth in both languages.
Given this structure teacher teams communicate daily to plan lessons and discuss student progress.
Additionally teachers collaborate with fellow grade-level and language colleagues during weekly meetings.
