Student Driven Classroom
Student-driven classrooms can teach accountability, responsibility, and prepare students for life outside of high school.
Students meet in the commons outside of the gym to discuss what we will be doing in class that day.

If students forget clothes and/or shoes, they will trade their cellphone or Chromebook as collateral to borrow some from our department. They get them back at the end of class when the items are returned.

Round Robin Tournaments are held at the end of each unit
IMG_3481.MOVVolleyball Round Robin Tournament. After each game, students high five the other team and one (team selected) student, is responsible for going to the board to see what court their next match is on.
Students greet each other with a firm handshake and introduce themselves each time they rotate and get a new opponent.
Having a good handshake, smile, and making eye contact while introducing yourself to others is a great life skill!
At the end of each game, students high five the other team/players and say "YOU'RE AWESOME!!!"
By telling their opponents "you're awesome" and high fiving, students are learning good sportsmanship.
