Supporting Student Growth
Schools should prioritize academicsuccess by providing high-quality teaching, challenging coursework, and a curriculum that prepares students for future careers or higher education. Students who excel academically are more likely to have opportunities for success later in life. Given the limited time in a school day, it’s more effective to focus on academic growth. While extracurriculars and emotional support are valuable, schools might not have the resources to provide both equally, and academic growth should take precedence. While academic growth is important, it cannot be separated from emotional and social growth. Students who struggle with mental health or lack confidence will not perform well academically. A school that nurtures all aspects of a student’s life creates better learners and citizens. Student growth is best supported by a balanced approach that nurtures emotional, social, and academic development. Schools should offer mental health resources, extracurricular activities, and a positive environment to ensure all-around growth for students.
