STAGE ONE - CHOOSE WARD FIVE CONFIGURATION
(1) Standalone MS with an arts and world language emphasis with 500 seats.

(2) Pre-School – 8 Education Campus  with an International Baccalaureate (IB) program where there will be 300 MS seats.

(3) 6th – 12th Education Campus - a Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) Citywide Application School with 100 seats set aside.

After stage one (selecting configuration) wraps up January of 2012, then comes stage two (specific school changes to Ward Five elementary campuses), and finally implementation for 2013-14 school year.

Personally, I favor #3 (citywide STEM application) because I think it has the best chance to start and stay strong.  I've got a second grader who might be a good candidate.[/quote]
