Middle College High School: A Meaningful Option
presented by Dr. Terry B. Grier

* Learn about the history and purpose of the
middle college high school concept.

* Find out about the important components
of middle college high schools.

* Learn more about the process of implementing
this particular kind of alternative school.

Middle college high schools are small high schools for students with  
academic potential who are not succeeding in traditional high schools  
or who have already dropped out. These students tend to be  
disconnected from regular high school for a variety of reasons. These  
schools, located on college campuses, limit enrollment and operate on  
a different structure, location, and schedule. The challenges in this  
innovative idea will be shared, and implementation strategies will be  
discussed.
