Academics

Academics within the Mooresville Graded School District are at the core of student performance and exist to establish MGSD students as globally innovative leaders by fostering a culture that cultivates critical thinking, communication, collaboration, creativity, rigor, relevance and social relationships.  District level administrators facilitate the overall plans for and implementation of MGSD's academic curriculum and instruction; site administrators lead the implementation of curriculum and instruction and are key stakeholders in all decision-making regarding it.  All district schools’ curriculum is aligned to the North Carolina Standard Course of Study, and enhanced via a digital format and digital resources. 

Academics within MGSD are based on many of the beliefs and values articulated within the district strategic plan:

  • An environment of pervasive caring supports students' optimal growth and success;
  • Academics will honor students' differences while providing them with high expectations;
  • Data will be studied and reflected upon to inform instructional practices and programming that is personalized, customized, and individualized;
  • Digital resources and tools is the basis for relevant and effectively delivered curriculum;
  • Global awareness, civic literacy, financial literacy and health awareness are integrated into core curriculum content; and 
  • Critical thinking, collaboration, creativity and communication should be integrated into teaching and learning for staff and students.
