A. Elementary Schools
Although the board does not endorse any particular method of grouping students, the grouping of students within individual schools shall be based upon:
2 . The educational level or achievement level of the student.
3. The most effective educational climate for learning.
4. The availability of space.
5. The welfare of the student.
B. Secondary Schools
Students may select their courses of study and classes when they are available. However, the students shall be advised of courses required for graduation or to meet their career choices.
Secondary students may be grouped to meet individual needs in certain subjects such as English or math. Principals should avoid scheduling arrangements that "lock" a student into a particular grouping for the entire school day.
Assignments by the principal shall depend upon the availability of the class, space available and the needs of individual students or groups of students.
