CHARLOTTE — If school officials givethe nod to a drafted district budget for the2011-2012 school year the biggest savings— and the biggest changes — will occur atCharlotte Middle School.
The building currently houses just over900 students in grades fifth through eighth.
But Charlotte’s Board of Education hasbeen asked to consider measures there thatwould save Charlotte schools $515,000 an-nually.
It’s the largest projected savings in aproposed budget aimed at closing a $3 mil-lion deficit.
The proposals would mean a major shiftin the way the building is structured andthe way classes are conducted.
Two schoolsAdministrators have proposed closing
Galewood Elementary and shifting existingkindergarten through third grade studentsto the district’s remaining two elementa-ries.
Under the budget draft, Charlotte’s 200fourth graders would move to the middleschool.
To accommodate them though, DistrictSuperintendent Nancy Hipskind said staffwould create two schools within the build-ing.
The “upper elementary” would includefourth and fifth grades and would be housedin one portion of the building.
Fourth and fifth grade classes would bestructured like other elementary classes,with an assigned classroom, and teacher,for every student.
The wing would have it’s own adminis-trative staff and a separate entrance. Com-mon areas, such as the cafeteria, wouldoffer separate lunch times for the “upperelementary” students, explained Hipskind.
“They will be in essence their own build-ing,” she said. “Basically, we will be run-ning two different schools in the middleschool building.”
Sixth through eighth grade classes wouldbe housed in another portion of the build-ing. Hipskind said they would have verylittle interaction with “upper elementary”students and function under a different in-struction model.
“They’re not going to have much moreexposure to older kids then they do in theirown neighborhoods,” she said of the fourthand fifth graders.
Costly modelsTwo costly, but effective, schedule mod-
els currently being used at the middleschool would be eliminated under the draft-ed budget.
The elimination of “Wheel time” and“School within a School” models, both inplace for two years now, would allow thedistrict to cut up to seven teaching posi-tions.
Charlotte Middle School PrincipalWayne Brown created “Wheel time,” which

The center, located in aformer elementary school, at311 West First Street in Char-lotte, was broken into andvandalized on March 30.
The center, which pro-vides resources for job seek-ers and employers, closedfor just one day, accordingto center Director Tim Price,while staff cleaned up someof the damage.
Price said about two doz-en items were destroyedinside the building — includ-ing computers, printers, tele-visions and filing cabinetsthat appeared to have beensmashed with a hammer.
“They clearly weren’there to profit,” said Price,noting that only a few itemswere taken during the break-in. Those included a DVDplayer and digital camera.
Charlotte Police ChiefBill Callahan said police arestill investigating the break-in.
“We’re still waiting forsome analysis of evidence tocome back,” he said.
Meanwhile, Price said
most of the destroyed equip-ment will need to bereplaced. He added that in-surance will cover most ofthose expenses.
Charlotte Police handledover 145 incidents the weekof March 28 to April 3. Hereare just a few of those inci-dents:
• March 28 — Charlottepolice were dispatched toa residence for an intoxicat-ed male destroying property

allows students to take spe-cialized writing, reading andproblem solving courses ona rotating “every other day”basis.
The model does twothings, according to Brownand Mary Taylor, the dis-trict’s associate superinten-dent for curriculum.
First, the special classesallow students time to fo-cus on core skills that aren’tgiven as much attention in atraditional language arts ormath class.
Taylor said the model hasbeen effective in boostingwriting skills at the fresh-men level.
“I definitely see somepositives,” she said. “I reallythink we’ve done a great jobof making that connection.”
Brown said the “wheeltime” model was beneficialto educators as well. Underit, teachers rotated classtime with professional de-velopment time. That wasused to examine curriculumbeing used and to modify iton an as-needed basis.
Brown said the conceptwas, in some ways, “cuttingedge.”
“It’s a way to offer stu-dents more experiences,”said Brown.
Like “Wheel Time,” the“School within a School”concept had proven suc-cess. Offered to just 30 sev-
enth and eighth graders ayear who demonstrated aneed for more academic at-tention, the concept allowedthem to work in small class-rooms of just 15 students.Those involved were givena more “intense” classroomexperience, said Taylor.
Brown said the “self-contained” environment al-lowed students a secondchance. “It allowed them tobasically raise their gradesand become passing stu-dents, for the most part.”
Brown said data from lastyear shows that the num-ber of students involved inthe program who were fail-ing was reduced by half in ayear’s time.
Keeping the focusHipskind said adminis-
trators don’t want to aban-don the concepts that areworking at the middleschool.
If the proposed budgetmoves forward staff wouldadopt a new model for sixththrough eighth grade class-rooms.
Entitled “flex four” the
concept would offer longercore class periods. Edu-cators would then devotea portion of the class tospecialized topics, includingwriting and problem solv-ing.
The goal, said Taylor, isto retain the strides thathave been made with “wheeltime.”
“What happens in class-rooms, teachers to students,is still the number one prior-ity,” she said. “Student learn-ing will still be the focus.”
A new concept will alsoreplace “school within aschool.” Students in the pro-gram would be placed in aregular classroom but theywould be given start-of-the-day and end-of-the-day smallgroup time and educator as-sistance.
Brown said he hopes thestrides that have been madecan be built upon with newmodels.
“These are things wedon’t want to do,” he admit-ted. “We might have to workharder but I’m hopeful ofwhat our district has to of-fer.”

POTTERVILLE --Potterville High Schoolsports history will be madeon April 12, when the Vi-kings’ newest varsity team,girls’ soccer, takes the fieldfor the first time.
Potterville will take onLaingsburg in that first con-test, and the team’s headcoach, Tim Sell, can’t waitto see what his young team,comprised almost exclusive-ly of freshmen and sopho-mores, can do.
“I’m extremely excited,”Sell said. “I’m really curiousto see, in a game situation,how the girls are progress-ing and where they stack up,to give us a really good start-
ing point on what we needto work on.”
Sell is no stranger toPotterville soccer, havingcoached in the town’s AYSOprogram, which fields teamsfrom Under-6 to Under-14,for “several years.” This giveshim a leg up on some othercoaches of brand-new teams,having coached most of hisplayers before.
The players are also nostranger to each other (ortheir home field, which is be-hind the elementary school),which is important in a teamsport like soccer, in whichworking together is para-mount.
“I have maybe eight ornine of them who haveplayed together at somepoint or another,” Sell said.
“Six of our freshmen haveplayed together for manyyears.”
The birth of the new pro-gram is the result of localparents taking matters intotheir own hands after yearsof trying to get the schoolto sponsor the sport. Whileplayers will be recognizedas varsity athletes, and willplay as representatives ofthe school, girls’ soccer is of-ficially a club sport, whichmeans that they must bearthe entire cost of fieldinga team, from uniforms totransportation.
In the current economicclimate, in which existingprograms are having trou-ble keeping their funding,the school is simply unableto provide any financial sup-

port.“We have a parent group
that did a presentation forthe (school) board, that wasvery interested in gettinga team together,” Sell said.“From a budgetary stand-point, there was no way thatthe school could add anysports right now. But, we’vehad some strong communitysupport, and we’ve been ableto raise all of our money topurchase uniforms. It lookslike we’ll be able to raise themajority of the money weneed for the first year.”
The team’s goals for itsinaugural season are mod-est, but important.
“The first thing is estab-lishing a good foundationfor the girls, both from theplaying standpoint, and forthe program,” Sell said. “Wewant to make sure we haveeverything in place so thatwe can continue to be strongand to grow. We want to gen-erate a lot of interest thisyear, that we’re competitiveas we can be, and for thegirls to have fun.”
After that first game atLaingsburg on Tuesday, April12, Viking fans will get achance to see the team a bitcloser to home in their sec-ond contest, at Charlotte onThursday, April 14.
