8th grade students who are in the Southern Region (attending Silver Creek MS, Westland MS, Eastern MS, Takoma Park MS, Newport Mill MS, Silver Spring International MS, Sligo MS, Thomas W. Pyle MS ) will have the ability to apply to a center program at one of the five high schools (Montgomery Blair HS, Einstein HS, Northwood HS, BCC HS and Whitman HS) in our region. If selected, that high school would become the student's new home school.
What is a Center Program?
A Center Program is a program pathway of a four-year comprehensive high school course of study designed to prepare students in a specific theme or field of study through integrated experiences. Each Center Program will contain the following:
Structure Sequence - Required pathway courses delivered through a planned four-year sequence.
Cohorted Learning - Students are enrolled with peers in the same program pathway for shared learning.
Real-World Experience - Hands-on learning through projects, labs, field trips, and showcases.
Co-curriculars & Extracurriculars - Clubs, competitions, performances, and work-based learning opportunities.
External Validation - AP, IB, dual enrollment, and industry-recognized credentials.
Culminating Experience - Final capstone projects, portfolios, or professional internships.
What are the Goals of the Center Programs?
The regional center program model is focused on three key goals:
Broaden access for more students by building on the successes of our current programs and consortia.
Create programs closer to students' homes and within their home school regions.
Expand program options across the district, ensuring that robust course offerings and programs in key academic theme areas are available in ALL regions.
