Assistant Superintendent Jennifer Miller led the subcommittee through a proposed middle-school staffing and structure plan intended to improve instructional delivery and student supports. Miller outlined proposed time allocation across subjects, an intervention model that includes brain-break activities, and plans to streamline science curriculum and pacing.
