Altona Middle School offers a wide variety of opportunities for students to receive additional, individualized academic support & intervention, both before school and at built in times during the school day. Students have access to:
- LEAD (Leadership through Enrichment, Academics, & Design) is a 40-minute period at the end of the day for all students. Reading, time to meet with individual teachers, take reassessments, and homework support all happen during this time. In addition, enrichment programs, such as Competitive Robotics, Show Choir, Jazz Band, Pops Orchestra, Rattler Student News and Yearbook also are offered during this time.
- AAA (Academic Acceleration Academy), which meets on Tuesday & Wednesdays from 3:00 – 4:15 in Mrs. Wilson’s room.
- Literacy, which occurs every day during LEAD. Students with Read Plans and/or students needing additional literacy or ELL meet in small groups with literacy and ELL intervention teachers for 200 minutes a week.
