Glasgow also houses programs for gifted, English as a second language, learning disabled, and Spanish partial- immersion students. Glasgow is a very unique school. Our diverse community is a rich resource that provides many opportunities for our students and staff members. Our students and teachers are provided with a full array of resources that ensure student success. These offerings are provided by a U.S. Department of Education 21st Century Community Learning Center Grant.
Teachers work with curricular coaches to enhance instructional pedagogical skills.
This five year 5.5 million dollar grant supports the efforts to create partnerships in our community to prepare students for college going and success in undergraduate programs. To give teachers greater control over instructional time, a block schedule was implemented in 1994. Academic standards have been strengthened by requiring all eighth grade students to take a foreign language and by redesigning the math program to prepare more students for Algebra 1 by grade eight. Teacher advisory, peer helping, peer mediation, and conflict resolution programs have been added to better meet the social and emotional needs of early adolescent learners. We have implemented comprehensive program enhancements in reading, math, and visual literacy.
