** All About SMS Power Point
SMS is a CollegeBoard SpringBoard School
SpringBoard is a unique program designed around the rigorous College Board Standards for College Success. These Standards identify the skills and competencies students need to be prepared for college. SpringBoard has backward-mapped these competencies from grade 12 down to grade 6. This enables teachers to provide a systematic, seamless and rigorous curriculum throughout middle and high school to better prepare students for college success. The result is that students will be better prepared for participation in the Advanced Placement (AP) Program and for college success.
