The teachers cooperate as a team while working to develop a comfortable yet challenging academic program. The block schedule allows for more project oriented activities which often requires longer periods of time to accomplish. Two sections for this program are offered. In each session up to 14 students and their teacher work individually on one to two courses at a time. Credit is granted when a student completes the requirements for a particular course.
Credit is granted at anytime during the school year depending on when the course work is completed.
Typically high school juniors, seniors, or students who work well independently will succeed in this unique educational environment. The remainder of the school day is spent working on the required academic courses needed for graduation. Students are on a quarterly profit sharing plan, so that they have the potential to earn a salary. The classroom is also located at the MBS business. One half of the day students are involved in academic instruction through contracted credits required for high school graduation.
