Academics

Glenwood High School is convinced that a code of best practise in the classroom will assist in the management of classroom activities and will create an atmosphere that is conducive to learning. The teachers will make every effort to follow this code and make boys aware of our commitment to this code. Developing and using BEST PRACTISE is a commitment to using all the knowledge and technology at one’s disposal to ensure success; it is one way of striving to deliver world-class standards of performance. This code establishes a standard for doing things in the classrooms in a specific way and to create consistency.
