\t\t\t\t\"northfield<\/a>According to the June Front Porch<\/a>, the new Stapleton High School is already a success. In the words of Principal Tropper<\/a>, Stapleton High School will produce, \u201cgraduates who will go on and be amazingly successful adults\u2014not only in the academic sphere, but as human beings and citizens too.\u201d This makes perfect sense to Stapleton residents. After all, it\u2019s their kids who will go on to be so incredible. \u201cMy kids are special,\u201d said resident Mary Buenger. \u201cSo, the new Stapleton high school will be lucky to get them. I am sure the high school will be great, but no matter where my kids go, they will be tremendous human beings. We do a great job parenting them.\u201d\n\nThe school is poised to focus on the International Baccalaureate (IB) curriculum<\/a> which most Stapleton residents know nothing about. \u201cI really don\u2019t know much about the program,\u201d says resident Karl Erickson. \u201cBut the name sounds quite impressive. In fact, it even sounds better than my law degree, or esquire.\u201d After reviewing the program, most will agree the program is quite comprehensive, covering the traditional curriculum as well as transdisciplinary themes. These themes include how the world works and sharing the planet. \u201cConsidering I am still having difficulty with these themes, it appears they are tackling quite a lot here,\u201d said resident Kyle Lair. \u201cBut, if anyone can learn these things quickly, it will be my kids.\u201d\nAccording to administrators, the success of the school will depend on diversity and mixed learning classrooms. Research has shown that all students perform better in mixed learning environments (which does not make sense, so this author needs to read more on the subject). \u201cMy daughter will certainly be of great help to the other kids in the classroom who aren\u2019t as smart as she is,\u201d says Stapleton resident Caitlin Wallsworth. \u201cThey say that the best way to learn is to teach, so that will help her continue her growth as she teaches the academically challenged kids.\u201d\nSome residents were disturbed by what was not mentioned in the article. \u201cThere was not one mention of a commitment to athletic success,\u201d said resident Rodney Street. \u201cAthletics<\/a> play a huge role in a child\u2019s growth, as well as build community pride and support for a school. I want to see some commitments to building top notch athletic facilities as well as hiring great coaches. I\u2019m not saying that education and personal growth aren\u2019t important, but let\u2019s not sacrifice tremendous athletic opportunities to get them.\u201d ]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
