NEXT SCHOOL BOARD MEETING FEBRUARY 5, 2010
A special February meeting of the AFA board of directors is scheduled for Friday, February 5, 2010. This meeting will be held at noon in the Academy conference room at 2504 Columbus Ave., Minneapolis, MN 55404. This meeting is open to the public.
CURRENT ENROLLMENT OPPORTUNITY FOR SECOND SEMESTER:
SELF-DIRECTED LEARNING CLASSES
The Academy continues to expanded opportunities for students who learn best in self-paced, on-line courses but who also want a regular classroom with teachers on-hand to give them help when they need it.
AFA has added a daytime program of workshops to its evening self-directed learning labs to serve the needs and interests of students wishing to enroll in self-paced study. These workshops cover topics in college & career readiness, health & wellness, art, and human pyschology. They are offered on a 1- or 2-week cycle throughout second semester. Most earn 0.125 credit upon completion. The workshops are scheduled from 1:00-4:00PM, Mon-Thurs and 9:00-4:00PM Fridays.
Students enrolled in the Academy’s afternoon/evening program of self-directed study are eligible to sign up for any of these workshops to earn additional credit in topics that interest them. Registration for workshops is limited to full-time Academy students on a first-come basis.
This option may be an ideal solution for students who want to graduate on time but who are more comfortable working at their own pace. It also serves students who need a more flexible schedule because of job or family commitments. Students work toward graduation – including making up credits they are behind – through a combination of classroom study, on-line coursework, focused workshops, and project learning in their communities
