Group wants schools that mix business with lessons
Another article about the Maine Enterprise Schools. This group is suddenly in the news because they're planning to enroll their first RSU1 students -- targeting 6th graders to make a 3-year commitment and 9th graders a 4-year commitment -- in the program THIS FALL (2011). This is considered an 'alternate path' to graduation and seems to be a driver in the need for standards-based curriculum and grading (no grades), so that students partipating in 'farm school' can still 'meet the standard' and graduate. What will a High School Diploma represent under this program? Surely it's not the classical, well-rounded education college admissions and employers expect!?!
