Limits of current reality

Middle School is a one-size fits all concept rightat the time that students come in many

different shapes and sizes physically,academically, socially, and emotionally.

Role of 9th grade at Middle Level

Limits on 6-8 and 9-12 academic system forstudents

Limits on 6-8 and 9-12 enrichment system for

students


15/37

3/16/13

Advantages of currentreality

Leverage LCS Campus structures

Leverage the 3-bus run transportation systemto provide students with the necessary addedsupport without loss of electives, as well as theability to access rigor/enrichment.

Leverage the Learning Center model andliteracy coaches to provide added supportwhile students maintain six classes.

The Flexible Day

Focus on aptitude not age.

Flex individual schedules of students and teachers to

maximize a full 8 hour day.

Our current high school begins with 7:30 am classes.Our middle school runs to 3:45 pm.

Inside of that time, there are 7-8 slots for course work.

Likewise, inside that time, students can participate in 6classes and receive support for an additional 1-2hours.

Students can seek out ualit enrichment.
