SomeConsiderationsK‐6, 7‐8

• 6th graders stay in elementary – student leaders

• Some parents more comfortable

• Need to build new elementary for K‐3 class size

• Two year Middle School –increased turnover

• Increased overhead costs

K‐5, 6‐8• Aligns with state and federal curriculum and assessment standards

• Keeps more secondary buildings in use

• Provides more access to academic options for 6thgraders 

• Allows reduction of one building

• Three year Middle School17

• A:  Campus• 9‐12 OHS, CKHS• 7‐12 KSS (MS constructed when population requires)• MS nearby, eventually on same campus

• B:• All 7‐12 secondary schools

• C:• Two large 9‐12 HS• MS located on completely different campuses

18

SomeConsiderations

• Provides opportunities for all 9th graders for academic at HS

• Provide additional opportunities for extra‐curricular activities/athletics 

• Allows students and families choice of options (9‐12 or 7‐12/6‐12)

• Allows greater flexibility around facilities and the future

19

CKHS and OHS 9‐12…KSS 7‐12 or 6‐12

SomeConsiderationsAll 7‐12 Schools• Requires all to be 7‐12• Reduces the number of sections for any course

• Increases extra‐curricular programs and cost

• Increases student opportunities to participate

• Lower WIAA classification• More time to develop relationships with students, staff and parents

Two Large 9‐12 HS• Requires 2 larger HS• Increases number of sections for courses including AP

• More elective offerings• Fewer preps for teachers in some areas

• Fewer student opportunities for activities/athletics

• Less individual student connections

SecondaryConfigurationCommittee:2007‐08Summary

• Completed study during school year 2007‐08 (Part A)• Recommendation:  move 9th grade from CKJ, RJH, FJH to CKHS & OHS and maintain KSS 7‐12

• Given resource constraints, space available at CKHS & OHS, and capital costs for CKHS & OHS expansion (lab space), reconfiguration was deferred (Part A) and to be reviewed 24‐36 months out

• K‐8 configuration intentionally was not completely analyzed and remains unresolved (Part B)

25

May 25, 2011

RationaleforMoving9th GradeUp• High School credit and requirements begin in 9th grade• Academic offerings in 9‐12 provide more access to students• Increased intervention options at HS level before 10th grade assessments

• Co‐curricular options facilitate 9th graders playing up• Curriculum is aligned 9‐12 at the state and national level• Grades 9‐12 align with highly qualified teaching certification requirements

• Only 7 districts currently are configured with a JH (7‐9) program.  Three have determined to move to 6‐8 and two, including CK, are in a study.

26

May 25, 2011

KSSGuidance• Confirmed 9th graders moving up, two 9‐12 HS with KSS at 7‐12 or 6‐12

• Minimal Transitions inside K‐12• More configuration similarities• Configuration outcome will not impact the standard size of elementary school (JP)

• “Configuration related decisions” is a four phase process• Current configuration is not an option (9th are moving up), current is a baseline, may allow us to stay there until the costs to change are minimized
