Animation Model Notes‣ Barrington 220 students have devices
available to them—they are not necessarily using them at all times for learning.
‣ Staff members represent existing available staff—not additional staffing requirements.
‣ Class/group numbers are arbitrary for visualization purposes—these are not recommended class/group sizes.

Promising Blended Models for Barrington 220
Model Feasibility Notes
Station Rotation Already occurring. Excellent option for PK–8.
Lab Rotation Moving away from “computer lab” model with One to World.
Flipped Classroom Already occurring in some classrooms.
Individual Rotation Limited use. Not designed as a building-wide model.
Flex Model Model would work as a high school late-start schedule implementation.
À la Carte Model Most practical for individual students.
Enriched-Virtual Model Used mostly for alternative or all-blended schools.
