Thinking associated with new grade structure for Lake City area elementary schools
LCE-Grades 4K-2nd grade • School was originally designed and built to • house 4K-2nd grades. • This will allow us to more effectively and • efficiently address early childhood • educational needs in one setting. • We would hope to serve more 3 and 4 yr • olds. • We hope this might put us in a better • situation to apply for more early childhood • grants.
MSE-Grades 3rd – 5th • Once the early childhood focus is • achieved at LCE, we can then focus • more direct attention to preparations • for state testing that begins at the 3rd • grade level. • Instructional and academic strengths • that once were divided between MSE • and LCE will now be combined at • one school.

Thinking associated with new grade structure for middle schools
J. Paul Truluck - Grade 6 • (will house all 6th graders for entire district) • We know that 6th graders have special • developmental, social, and academic • needs, and we believe we can better • address those needs collectively in one • setting. • We believe that we can better prepare • these students for the New Tech setting • that they will be entering in the 7th grade • by having all 6th graders in one setting.
Ronald E. McNair (REM)- Grades 7 & 8 (will house all 7th & 8th graders • for entire district) • REM will be a complete New Tech School. It will be more cost effective to renovate one school for all 7th & 8th graders in New Tech than two middle schools. • We can have one middle school (Junior High) athletic department rather than two as we now have and one set of cheerleaders to fund rather than two (more cost effective).
