The afternoon specialists will remain the same but there may be some minor changes in the day and time. Students will get a copy of the new schedule prior to Jan. 2 so they will know where to go and when to be there.
These new features extend teaching and learning time for core subjects which allow for smaller class sizes, more enrichment, and intervention when needed. We extend our deep appreciation to the middle school teachers for embracing this change so readily and tweaking the schedule so everything is covered. Our thanks to Mrs. Carle for her willingness to return for the second trimester and to Ms. Prahl for moving to grade 5.
