Writing

 Writing helps students read, solve problems and understand concepts in every part of the curriculum. The National Writing Project (NWP) prepares teachers in strategies that help their students become accomplished writers and learners. Research studies consistently show statistically significant gains in writing performance among students whose teachers participate in NWP programs. The teaching staff of sdgva collaborates with the San Diego Area Writing Project, a local writing project site of NWP, to develop practices that will help all students succeed at high levels. San Diego Global Vision Academy students will acquire writing skills essential for participation in the workplace and global economy.
