During the 2011-2012 school year we are piloting two gender-based classrooms at the sixth grade level in both language arts and math. For those students who were randomly selected, language arts and math instruction will be provided in gender-based classrooms while science, social studies, and special area instruction will take place in a mixed-gender setting for those students. In accordance with Title IX regulations, participation in the program is voluntary. A letter was sent home today, Friday, September 9th, which provides information about the pilot program. The letter also contains a survey related to the program. We asking all sixth grade parent(s) / guardian(s) to fill out the survey and return the survey to school with your child on Monday, September 12th.
