GMS Programming ●How will a new school for our middle school students result in a significant positive impact on the educational program? ●Instructional programs that go beyond the traditional academic scope of the classroom. ●A feeling and sense of community. ●Collaborative learning spaces. ●Student centered school.

Grinnell High School/Grinnell Middle School Programming Flexibility to support student learning: ●Remediation for students needing lower level instruction could happen efficiently. ●Advancement for students needing accelerated instruction could happen efficiently. Proximity of buildings to support teacher collaboration: ●Grade span collaboration, teaming; Peer-to-peer instructional observation would happen with more frequency, enhancing instructional practices.

Committed Schools ●The district is committed to meeting the needs of all learners ●Committed to preparing all learners for the world beyond our PK-12 system ●School facilities play a significant role in the education of our students.
