In grades K-5 students travel to other classrooms to receive needed instruction. For example, all 2nd-grade students go to one of
seven classrooms during Passport time (9:10-9:40) four days a week.
The students are divided into 7 different skill groups.
The beginning-level skill groups are typically smaller than the more advanced groups.
