Share

Newport-Mesa Unified Supt. Fred Navarro will discuss the school district’s priorities at the Newport Beach public library Thursday.

Newport-Mesa trustees approved the priorities during Tuesday night’s school board meeting.

Academic goals include implementation of the new Common Core State Standards, which promote critical thinking initiatives in course curriculum, and college preparation standards for students.

Behavioral priorities include the implementation of restorative justice for students, which gives them an opportunity to learn from their errors in judgment and make amends.
