New curriculum built around career clusters
An education and business initiative to design a radically new curriculum for Kalispell’s high school students is attracting statewide attention.
Local school and work-force leaders are being invited to speak with university groups, state education officials and others who want to hear about School District 5’s proposal for developing career clusters.
High school class schedules mapped out within those career clusters will connect students with courses best geared for their success beyond graduation.
“This is hard work,” said DeAnn Thomas, director of the Flathead High School Career Center.
“It’s a huge change and a shift for schools — which don’t change easily — and for businesses, which don’t change easily.”
