The mission of Etowah County Alternative Education Center is to develop in the students lasting qualities of responsible citizenship: self-esteem, self-discipline, trust, lifelong learning, and respect for others. This is accomplished by teaching conflict resolution skills, by requiring a high academic purpose, and by strengthening relationships among parents, children, and the community. In addition, technology is integrated into the core curriculum in support of this mission.
|
The single most important strength of Etowah County Alternative Education Center is its small class size. Etowah County Alternative Education Center has the privilege of lower student/teacher ratios - fifteen to one or less is maintained in as many classes as possible. This allows teachers to instruct and evaluate students on a very individual level. The emphasis at Etowah County Alternative Education Center is primarily upon academic success, along with the enrichment of the affective domain of the student.
