WOLVERINE TIME
Westview's Wolverine Time, a 28-minute open tutorial period twice a week, is designed to help students meet their academic standards by providing small group tutoring with teachers and student academic tutors. Longer instructional periods and individualized instruction allow for students to access the curriculum in an effective manner. Some students are placed on mandatory Wolverine Time who have failed one or more classes.
4 X 4 SCHEDULE INFORMATION
Westview operates on a 4 X 4 block learning schedule, allowing students to select up to eight courses each year that meet their individual academic needs and goals. The longer periods and the everyday meeting allows teachers to become more familiar with students' strengths and growth areas, thereby allowing teachers to more skillfully target student needs. On the 4 X 4 block schedule, students take three or four classes each 18-week term. Each of the two terms is comprised of two 9-week quarters, and students complete the equivalent of a five-credit semester course each quarter. An added benefit, reported by students who have graduated and begun college, is that the 4 X 4 block schedule prepares students for the pace and rigor of college. Westview's Wolverine Time, a 28-minute open tutorial period twice a week, is designed to help students meet their academic standards by providing small group tutoring with teachers and student academic tutors. Longer instructional periods and individualized instruction allow for students to access the curriculum in an effective manner.
REDUCED CLASS LOAD FOR STUDENTS:
Students will have the opportunity to take four classes each term.
