Innovation Status for Northfield High School
We, the undersigned students, parents, and community members, support innovation status for Northfield High School as outlined in the plan to be submitted to the Colorado Department of Education.
Why is this important?
The flexibility in areas including, but not limited to: faculty hiring, staffing, work rules, licensing, evaluation, school schedule and calendar, educational programming, budgeting, curriculum, assessment, leadership and management, and governance that is provided by innovation status will allow Northfield High School to fulfill its mission of providing every single student in this diverse high school with an excellent education. Under the leadership of Principal Avi Tropper and in collaboration with the community and faculty, Northfield High School is committed to implementing the innovation plan and building a school culture dedicated to inclusion and excellence.
