Lovett differentiates instruction during class time through station rotations and opportunities for individual student work.

Students are placed in either high, medium or low classes based on their ability level, using their NWEA RIT score as a starting point. Students may change classes during the year based on performance.

Based on their learning preferences, students at Lovett are able to choose who to work with and when to work with partners.

Lovett creates Learner Profiles, which include academic data and additional information to help educators gain a more holistic understanding of each student.

Student conferences empower students to take ownership of their learning, open a dialogue between teachers and students and allow for more effective progress monitoring.

Lovett uses station rotation and individual rotation models for blended learning.

To better meet student learning needs, Lovett has created flexible learning environments in both its classrooms and its hallways.
