How will the four->ear high
school plan affect academic oppnrtunit)
?
( )iu* ill I In* nrohlt'HK vs. i r h th??
current structure is the difficulty
'in coordinating academic programs
between the high schools
and senior high schools. Many
courses must be taught at both
levels. The teachers of the first
>ear ot a subject and the second
>ear are often in different schools
and have little contact with each

1 he programs \sould he greatly
alleviated h\ the four-year high
school. Academic quality must be
our first concern. We have made
a great deal of progress in recent
years so that our test scores are
now significantlv above thp n;i
tional averages. The four-year
high school will help us maintain
these gains and provide better
quality programs for our
students.
W ill students have as many electees
available even though there
are smaller numbers of students
in each grade?
Since most electives are open to
students in more than one grade,
and there will be fewer schools
set \ jug grades 9-12 (eight instead
of the current thirteen), it will be
possible to offer a greater selection
of elective courses and also
otter more flexibility in schedul-.
ing. There may be some difficulty
as there is now, in offering
some upper level courses with
prerequisites (such as Latin IV) at
every school, but there will be

the desirable enrollment for ahigh
school in order to offer a
full selection of courses and opportunities
for students without
becoming too large for effective
management. Projected
enrollments for the eight high
schools are well within that
_tange,
~cvF tbr high schools wiH?
offer a full academic, vocational
and extracurricular program.
There will always be, as there are
now , variations in eleetives based
on course selection at each
school. Teachers and materials
will be equitably distributed so
that each school has a comparable
faculty in qualifications,
experience, age, race and sex.
While this will cause some disruption
among all our faculties, we
believe the move is necessary to
ensure that te schools can offer
equal opportunities for each student.

No. The Board of Education
has made an exception to the
reorganization plan forrhe~ctass"
of 1975, now in the junior year.
These students will be "grandfathered"
so that they can continue
at the schools they currently
attend. This means that the three

Will the four-year high school effect
the dropout rate?
Our dropout rate is currently
.,^11 .u
v?tn uciuw me siaie average. w e
think that it will improve even
further as the four-year high
school allows counselors and
other staff to get to know
students belter and help meet
their needs over four years.
Parent involvement drops off
sharply now in the secondary
schools. Will the four-year high
school help?
Parents should find the fourv^nr
hi^h school a.,
work with. Smaller districts and a
longer lime to get to know the
principal and staff should improve
cooperation and com
munication between the home
and school.
What will be done about libraries
at the eight high schools to accommodate
material for four
grades?
A staff committee is currently
working on plans for
redistributing the library
materials of the 13 current
schools serving grades 9-12 so
that each of the new senior high
schools has a full set of materials
for these grades. The Carver,
West and Glenn library spaces
will need to be expanded in order
to serve their enrollment. Funds
for that expansion are included in
the costs of implementation. Anv
new library materials that are
needed will be included in the
regular annual purchase through
special appropriations.

However, each of the new
schools will be eligible for full
conference participation for the

1984-85. Local school personnel
have worked very closely with officials
of the North Carolina

to identify possible opponents in
the various sports. Schedules for
all sports shouK be able to be
