Zinser Elementary spotlight; middle- and high-school course proposals presented to board
Summary
Principal Johnston highlighted Zinser Elementary’s programs and students; principals presented proposed middle- and high-school course removals and additions for board consideration.
At the Dec. 15 meeting, Principal Johnston highlighted 12 items that the school identifies as strengths for Zinser Elementary, and students demonstrated curriculum impacts: Grady P. showed Bridges math strategies and Mya P. read a poem tied to Bookworms curricular resources.
As part of the Office of Teaching and Learning update, Middle School Principal Dodge and High School Principal Robrahn presented recommended course changes. Middle school recommendations listed removals including 8th Grade Tech, Computers 1–3, Web Design, Teen Leadership, and Journalism. High school recommendations listed removals including Algebra 2A/2B, Advanced Algebra with Statistics 1 and 2, and Precalculus, and proposed additions for Honors Algebra 2, AP Statistics, and AP Precalculus. The presentation was informational; the transcript records the proposals but does not show a formal board vote on course-adoption items at this meeting.
The board noted the course proposals for future action and asked no recorded follow-up questions on the transcript excerpt. Student representatives were not present to offer comment.
