This application for a continuation grant (P.L. 89-10 ESEA, Title III) for the Experimental Model School Unit (EMSU) of the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools (North Carolina) contains three sections. Section 1 outlines the revised and expanded evaluation plan for the project in which eight activities are being tested in the EMSU (a high school, a junior high school, and two elementary schools) which is designed to serve as a catalyst for curriculum, organizational, and technological improvement throughout the school system. Part 2 contains objectives, narrative descriptions, and evaluation of the programs currently under way (since September 1967): (1) kindergarten program; (2) individually prescribed instructional program in elementary school mathematics; (3) nongraded team teaching programs in elementary school and in junior high humanities, science, and mathematics, and team teaching in high school; (4) learning resources center programs in elementary, junior, and senior high schools; (5) high school nature center program; (6) experiment for more flexible high school vocational curriculum; (7) guidance programs at all levels; and (8) inservice training program to stimulate innovation and its dissemination.
