Evaluation Report: Miccosukee Day School, Southeast Agencies, June 1973. Research and Evaluation Report Series No. 06-A.
Monsen, Marie
The Day School operated Head Start, Title I and VII, and Adult Education programs in addition to the basic K-6 curricula. The programs and curriculum emphasized attracting and retaining students. Of the 45 students enrolled during Fiscal Year 1973, 3 were "dropouts". Emphasizing language skill development, the basic curriculum consisted of English (reading spelling, speaking), arithmetic, Miccosukee language and culture, social studies, and some music, art, and geography. Divided into primary and elementary levels, instruction emphasized individualized learning. Various enrichment activities were available to the children--weekly sewing classes for girls and shop classes for boys; daily physical education; design making, bead-craft, and basketry taught by mothers; cooking; weekly movies; and monthly field trips. Focusing on the education program, the 3-day on-site evaluation determined how well program components met their objectives, and pointed out program component strengths and weaknesses. The evaluation indicated that the program was progressing steadily toward meeting its objectives. Appendices include: a copy of the school's contract, a Title I evaluation, outlines of teaching schedules, descriptions of the Adult Education programs along with enrollment data, examples of the school lunch menus, a "draft" of the school board manual, and a listing of the 1972-73 objectives for the primary grades.
