Our first priority is, of course, academic achievement. Our goal is to provide academic challenge for each student beginning at his or her own current level of achievement. The academic course work should allow each student to experience success by providing material at an appropriate level of difficulty, by creating an atmosphere of accomplishment and by holding each student accountable for his or her own part in the learning process. Academic classes range from self-contained special education to classes for gifted students. A number of the classes are ungraded, meaning that they are appropriate for both seventh and eighth grade students.
Remedial education is offered for basic academic and functional academic classes.
Gifted education is also provided in the history and English academic areas. MAGI is an acronym for Multimedia Arts and Graphics Imaging.
