Portrait of a Learner

Creating a Portrait

Hilliard City Schools is excited to unveil its new Portrait of a Learner. Hear from Superintendent Dave Stewart and a few of our business partners about how our community came together to determine the skills our students need to be Ready For Tomorrow.

Resilient Learner

Respond productively to change, and demonstrate agility in thought and actions. Possess the desire to learn,
unlearn, and relearn in order to foster curiosity and creativity, explore new ideas, and grow through both success and failure.  Transfer and apply learnings from diverse experiences.

Self Advocates

Recognize the importance of physical, mental, social-emotional, and digital wellness. Focus on building a healthy self-image and self-esteem that allows for the pursuit of individual goals.

Critical Thinkers

Gather, analyze, and evaluate information and ideas to think deeply, develop innovative solutions to problems, and make informed decisions.

Empathetic Citizens

Demonstrate global awareness and respect, and act with concern and compassion for the unique perspectives, experiences, and
cultures of all.

Purposeful Communicators

Speak and write with clarity. Listen actively to decipher meaning including knowledge, values, attitudes, and intentions to collaborate with others effectively.
