The International Studies program goal is to educate children within the context of understanding the cultures of many different countries. Teachers expose students to world cultures through creative settings, displays and clothing representing native characters of other countries. Arts and technology are infused to help students develop an appreciation and understanding of other cultures and to enrich the social-studies curriculum. Strong emphasis is placed on the study of geography. Students learn while experiencing the rich diversity of cultures around the world.
Utilization of Magnet Schools
The school district strives to have the utilization of all schools between 85% and 105% of their current capacity. The 2011-2012 utilization of each magnet school helps determine the number of new magnet openings a school may offer for the 2012-2013 magnet lottery.
