EMUHSD Instructional Vision
In the El Monte Union High School District classrooms, our teachers:
- Provide a physically and emotionally safe classroom environment with the necessary routines, climate, and culture conducive to learning,
- Intentionally plan differentiated learning opportunities that are aligned to the appropriate content and grade level standards and are reflective and responsive to the needs of all students,
- Actively engage students in meaningful and rigorous learning activities that promote student interaction and demonstrations of learning,
- Regularly engage in the process of assessing and reviewing evidence of student learning in order to adjust instruction and provide support to a diverse student population.
This leads to students who:
- Are empowered to persevere in learning that develops collaboration, critical thinking, and problem solving skills,
- Understand and effectively articulate learning goals,
- Are actively engaged in academic discourse, activities, and tasks that develop content knowledge and skills,
- Demonstrate their knowledge and skills in various and innovative ways.

These practices help build meaningful relationships, encourage self-awareness, and empower all learners to engage fully in school life. Campuses and classrooms that implement these practices create a strong sense of belonging where all students feel seen and valued.
