Teachers at Collinsville Middle School keep abreast of the latest methods of delivering instruction.  They frequently take advantage of staff development opportunities that are offered in the district and through universities, in addition to attending conferences. We recognize that students learn in different ways, and we use a variety of instructional strategies to address the different learning styles of students.

Teachers are encouraged to work together as a team regardless of grade level.  Teachers also work across grade levels regularly to ensure a continuum of learning that makes sense for the students. With proper scheduling, our teaching teams are set up to have complimenting planning times, to make sure every teacher is teaching to the standards and that each is clear on what our students need to know and be able to do.
