Teachers prepare students for daily group lessons.

Students in Syracuse City School are about to get more personalized instruction and support under a program aimed at improving overall academic performance.

The district says Elevate 315 also provides students with constructive feedback so they can take ownership in their work and build their self-confidence.

“Elevate 315 is about raising expectations and backing them up with real support,” said superintendent Paula Odom. “We are investing in our teachers, strengthening leadership, and ensuring every student has access to engaging, high-quality instruction that helps them thrive in a nurturing environment.”

The program satisfies the requirements of learning models developed by the state education department, from least to most intensive, to align with federal law.
