The previous section provides a structure for the development of the school plan. It includes an overview of the scope and progression of learning in SciTech based on outcomes and big ideas for K-6.

The establishment of such a plan is just the beginning. The effectiveness of the school plan is measured by its flexibility that allows teachers to develop programs that respond to the needs of the students in their class.
