Each
grade level is comprised of three (3) teams. One of these teams
is for Gifted students and the other two (2) are for Academically
Talented students. A team usually has approximately 150 students.
These students rotate among the core academic teachers, physical
education/health, and an elective. Each grade level also has their
own House Administrator who is responsible for overseeing the
day to day workings of their House as well as handling discipline
and other problems
which may occur.
