Advancement The curriculum of Rickards result- ed in many advancements as the new flexible staffing-modular sche- duling was put into effect this year. For the first time in RHS's history, Rickards students experienced such novelties as team-teaching and schedule-back time that proved to be exciting to all as the new system began its reign. Students did not attend each class everyday, but instead went to cer- tain classes on certain days of a five-day cycle. Schedule-back time, mods used to do assignments and to do further study in a subject, was used as a component of class time to provide a credit for a course. During schedule-back time, stu- dents attended resource centers equipped with various materials in subject matters and a resource teacher who aided teachers and students. The curriculum of RHS experi- enced many advancements as Rick- ards moved forward in its quest to improve the lives of its students this year. Advancements which will prove effective in aiding the emer- gence of RHS students of today, into the communities of tomorrow. -l 17

1-3 f 5 gli., g Traditional Teaching Methods Give Way With flexibility as the key word, a new program of teaching and sched- uling was put into effect. It was Rickards first year of imple- menting the pilot program in flexible staffing which was designed to em- phasize individual instruction and to utilize to the fullest individual tal- ents of each faculty member. Instead of having seven 50 minute periods a day, RHS had 21 mods of 20 minutes each. Each class was offered 12 mods in a five day cycle, including class time and schedule back time. Summer was a busy time for teachers getting ready for the new plan. They attended workshops at the school to get a better understanding of flexible staffing. f Working through depart- ments, they also worked to get resource centers in order. The inservice workshops continued through the year as teachers attend- ed workshops on leadership training, racial confrontation, professional training in family therapy, human relations, and the seventh annual Atlanta regional program for com- munity leadership. 18 S ,,..
