Current Policy – JECB/JECCSection III, 2.Elementary School Standards a - b

a) When enrollment in grades K-5 reaches 22 students in any one class with a particular grade level, all other classes within that same grade level must also have 22 students before a 23 student may be added to any one particular class. This same concept must be applied to increase class size beyond 23 students.

• Assignment preference occurs for any student when their older sibling has previously enrolled and currently attends the school to which the student desires to attend.

b) Classes exceeding acceptable size, as stated above, will be adjusted by the board where possible by requiring new enrollees to attend a school which has available space in that class. Students who are force transferred may not be changed for the remainder of the school year.

Proposed Change – JECB/JECCSection III, 2.Elementary School Standards a - d

2. To increase flexibility in student assignment and to increase parental choice, the district shall use the following guide to direct placement of elementary students:

a. When a K-1 student population within a particular building exceeds a 24-1 student to teacher ratio, any new enrolling student may be force transferred to another building.

b. When a 2-3 student population within a particular building exceeds a 26-1 student to teacher ratio, any new enrolling student may be force transferred to another building.

c. When a 4-5 student population within a particular building exceeds a 28-1 student to teacher ratio, any new enrolling student may be force transferred to another building.

d. No intra-district transfer request will be granted if the requested school’s student-to-teacher ratio exceeds 18 students to 1 teacher for the requested grade unless extenuating circumstances exist and must be approved by the superintendent.

Proposed Middle School Changes Changes will allow district to maintain the

middle school concept into the future. This change places art, physical education,

health, foreign language, industrial arts, life skills, keyboard and general music into something called a wheel.

The wheel will allow each student to take one quarter (nine weeks) of each of the above named subjects.

Art – Proposal

Current – Every middle school student takes one semester of art each year.

Proposed – Every middle school student would take one quarter (nine weeks) of art each year.

Physical Education – Proposal

Current – Every middle school student takes one semester of physical education each year.

Proposed – Every middle school student would take one quarter (nine weeks) of physical education each year.

Health - Proposal Current – Every middle school student takes one

semester of health each year.

Proposed – Every middle school student would take one quarter (nine weeks) of health each year.

Mr. Neiles anticipates revamping the health and physical education curriculums. This could possibly move some of the health into other classes and convert the remaining health curriculum into a wellness course which would occupy the spots currently titled physical education and health.

Foreign Language - Proposal Current – Every eighth grade student takes

one semester of foreign language.

Proposed – Every middle school student would take one quarter (nine weeks) of foreign language each year.

We offer both Spanish and German and would like to have students exposed to both. Therefore, as an example of how to pull this off, we could place Spanish/German in the 6th grade nine-week period and teach Spanish at 7 th and German at 8th.

Industrial Arts - Proposal

Current – Every seventh grade student takes one semester of Industrial Arts.

Proposed – Every middle school student would take one quarter (nine weeks) of Industrial Arts each year.

Life Skills - Proposal

Current – Every eighth grade student takes one semester of Life Skills.

Proposed – Every middle school student would take one quarter (nine weeks) of Life Skills each year.

Keyboard - Proposal

Current – Every middle school student takes one quarter (nine weeks) of keyboard per year.

Proposed – No change.

General Music - Proposal

Current – Every middle school student takes one quarter (nine weeks) of general music per year.


Other Electives

Band – No change

Orchestra – No Change

Choir – No change.

Sixth Grade Team

Current – 9 sections (one semester the team consists of 4 instructors who teach their core subject and reading and one semester the team consists of 5 instructors – the same 4 core teachers plus a reading teacher).


Seventh Grade Team

Current – 10 sections (two teams consisting of 4 instructors who teach core subjects, 1 instructor who teaches reading and 1 instructor who teaches industrial arts.

Proposed – 9 sections (one semester the team consists of 4 instructors who teach their core subject and reading and one semester the team consists of 5 instructors – the same 4 core teachers plus a reading teacher).

Seventh Grade Team

Move industrial arts into the wheel.

Reduces the team from 10 members to 9.

Eighth Grade Team

Current – 10 sections (two teams consisting of 4 instructors who teach core subjects, 1 instructor who teaches foreign language and 1 instructor who teaches life skills.

Proposed – 9 sections (one semester the team consists of 4 instructors who teach their core subject and reading and one semester the team consists of 5 instructors – the same 4 core teachers plus a reading teacher).

Eighth Grade Team

Move foreign language and life skills into the wheel.

Adds reading to eighth grade.

Reduces the team from 10 members to 9.
