Schoolwide Enrichment Model (SEM)

Our Schoolwide Enrichment Model (SEM) engages all MPE students in memorable activities to enhance the existing curriculum. (Go to the SEM page of our site to learn about our SEM units at each grade level.) For each SEM unit, the grade level team works collaboratively to expand the required curriculum into high quality/high interest instructional plans. New Science Georgia Performance Standards (GPS) will be implemented this year in grades 3-5, and new SEM units are being created to enrich the new curriculum. Each SEM activity provides opportunities for all students to develop and communicate their skills and knowledge. Without your generous financial support through the PTA Schoolwide Enrichment Fund contributions, SEM would not be possible. Thank you for supporting this important part of MPE’s outstanding learning experiences!

Please visit Fulton County’s website at www.fultonschools.org to gain additional information about K-12 curriculum, test scores, school year calendars, etc. or www.georgiastandards.org for information about changes in Georgia’s Performance Standards (GPS.)
