Ed Spec for High Schools

As requested, a thread on educational specifications as laid out in this SPS document posted by Seattle Citizen. 

May 2016 report on Seattle Public Schools - Educational Specifications For High Schools.

This looong document lays out all the details, from structure to curricula, for future high schools in the city.

It seems to want to integrate disciplines, such as ELA and SS, and using the new NGSS Standards, yet here we find they're forcing Physics into 9th grade without doing a whole systems revamp as integration would require. So there doesn't appear to be commensurate connection to Math, nor are other disciplines bring similarly rejiggered.

Additionally, this drastic change is coming concurrently with the 24 credit requirement and its schedule changes, making even more of a mess and adding even more to teachers' workloads.

From reader Physics Fan on moving physics (of a sort) to 9th grade:

Here's an old article but another good starting point and it talks about the equity part.

From reader Kellie:

It seems like high school is about to become a train wreck with all of various moving part and various initiatives that require substantial coordination.

* 24 credit requirement for graduation
* “non-negotiable” new schedules and teaching loads for high school teachers
* teacher contract up for re-negotiation
* More credit earning opportunties for high schools students - the fact and fiction versions
* dismantling or re-distribution of high school HCC
* zero transparency regarding the impact of running start
* the increase in cohort size for the 2018 high school freshman class (one of the largest cohorts in the system)
* new boundaries for high school that have zero consideration for walkability
* the entire question of high school option schools and whether or not these are just going away.

I think there are even more moving parts.
