The goal was for the international student body, faculty and staff to form a learning community.
This is based after the house system of smaller learning communities.
Johnson used the money to create eight smaller learning communities for the 2003-2004 school year.
This learning community believes all students can and must learn at high levels of achievement.
These smaller learning communities separate particular student interests into different areas of the school.
Currently, there are eight smaller learning communities within the school.
Further changes are taking place at the high school in order to better accommodate the three smaller learning communities.
It is a powerful learning community in a small school setting for students from all social, cultural and economic backgrounds.
It is the learning community's job to create an environment that results in this level of performance.
In 2001, the school received a $500,000 grant to develop smaller learning communities.
