[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I think the loss of the block program negatively affected the academics of the EMS program. There is no longer in depth work periods. There is still a double-block for the WS/Eng classes, but if your student takes the block in the morning, it is interrupted by a 20 min. "PBIS" period (which is basically homeroom with some "social" lessons occasionally delivered), which means that really only half the program has a "block". [/quote] I think character education is time well spent to help maintain a positive school community. Middle school students have so much interpersonal drama, having some explicit instruction on how to be a decent human being could go a long way to helping that [/quote]
