City Academy. A Charter School Prototype.
Cutter, Milo
Phi Delta Kappan, v78 n1 p26-27 Sep 1996
Supported by Saint Paul and the Northern States Power Company, two Minnesota secondary teachers developed a pilot program, the Power League, aimed at returning 16- to 21-year olds to school. The City Academy grew out of students' requests for individual learning plans, an intimate learning community, and a sound school restructuring rationale. Staffing and program particulars are discussed. (MLH)
