"WOW has made a tremendous difference in the culture and climate of the Fife SD. Our teachers now work together across grade levels and schools to develop lessons that will engage more students. We have created time and a structure for teachers to work together to develop lessons around 'challenging to teach' concepts. Educators in Washington State feel an enormous pressure for improving student scores on the Washington Assessment of Student Learning (WASL). We believe the Standard Bearer framework for WOW has shifted the focus for Fife teachers away from test scores and accountability to a focus on what really matters-- students engaged in learning meaningful skills for their future. Teachers are creating more engaging lessons and as a result our test scores have increased significantly. Fife High School students had the highest scores in Western Washington on last year's test."
—Dr. Marti Harruff
Assistant Superintendent
Fife Public Schools
