The guide is designed to provide the building level administrator a step by step model for implementing Project DEEP's (Diversified Educational Experiences Program) alternative classroom management system for secondary academic classrooms with disaffected (attendance problems, discipline problems, potential dropouts), average, and gifted and creative students. Material is arranged in a developmental format, answering questions as the administrator progresses through the process of identifying the program; matching needs with program; involving other educators; selecting teachers; building the team; training staff; communicating with parents and community; and installing, managing, and evaluating the program. It is explained that Project DEEP is student centered and project oriented with students in DEEP classrooms identifying needs, formulating objectives, developing tasks based upon these objectives, presenting group projects based on fulfillment of objectives, receiving teacher debriefing following the project, and participating in their own evaluations. The document includes attitudinal assessment and curriculum objectives checklists, a DEEP training schedule, a list of suggested materials, and sample forms. (SBH)
