What are the two main drivers that are pushing us at CHS?
In 2003 we had 1300 students, we now have 1900 students and are growing at CHS at a rate of about 100 students per year – we are predicting that CHS will have about 2700 students by 2021 – way too many for this campus. Yet, our community wants to maintain a “ … only one comprehensive high school… ” identity. The second driver for change is the need to convert our school system from a structure appropriate for the industrial age … to … a structure appropriate for the information age. This conversion will allow us to deliver instruction in new ways more easily, and within programs of instruction suited to the new employment environment. From “on-time, on-task, repetitive” to “independent thinker and problem solver” What are the two main drivers that are pushing us at CHS?
