Students need a strong foundation in core subjects such as reading, writing, and mathematics in order to reach advanced levels of learning.
Students that perform below grade level at the middle school and high school levels lack such core foundations, and have various learning gaps.
Learning gaps are also caused by gaps in motivation.
Educational choices stem from parent’s rights to choose what is best for their children and their education.
Student learning is increased when parents are made aware of various options and resources available to them and their children.
Students need various learning options to address their diverse learning styles, goals, and needs.
