  The second grade team believes that children are unique and we strive to meet their individual needs.  We address different learning styles and differentiate instruction so that students accelerate at their own pace.  As teaching professionals, we use research-based strategies, materials and best practices when designing the second grade curriculum, which follows the BVSD standards.
