grade levels over a period of four years. High level of transient students due to
military. Both buildings run about 63% free and
reduced lunch. Magnet school pulls kids from the entire district.

DEVELOPING A CHALLENGE Middle School Challenge
Know your kids! What will work in one building may not work in another. It must be relevant to your population.
Long process. Do not rush. This means working together over the summer, holidays, weekends. Must work in a collaborative environment.
