Year Round High Schools for Phoenix. Final Evaluation Report: A Review of Objectives (1974-75).
Phoenix Union High School District, AZ.
On the basis of a needs assessment conducted by the Phoenix Union High School District a proposal for partial Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) Title III funding was submitted in January, 1972. Goals for Year Round Schools for Phoenix were: (1) to provide a specially designed curriculum and a uniquely trained staff for the twelve month school in order to effect an instructional program which is flexible, innovative and individualized for students; (2) to institute a service whereby students will be provided with employment during the time when they are not attending school; (3) to provide each student with either the skills necessary for further education, or a saleable career skill upon graduation from high school; and (4) to demonstrate that the twelve month school concept will result in significant capital savings by fully utilizing facilities and equipment. South Mountain High School was selected as the pilot school for the implementation of the program. The purpose of this report is to summarize the effectiveness of the Year Round School Program in attaining specified objectives and to make recommendations for the future status of the Year Round School program at South Mountain High School. Each of the objectives of the project are stated and are evaluated separately. The evaluation of each objective is discussed and determination is made of whether the objective was achieved or not achieved. (MV)
