How does OPS build planning time for curriculum integration into the school day?
DeLayne Havlovic: I think the best example of how we do that is with our construction academy and our career center. With that program, we have, not only construction management instructors working with our students, but we also have a math-endorsed teacher and an English-language-arts-endorsed teacher that are all working with those students collaboratively. When those students come to the career center, during their career center block of time, they receive credit in math, they receive credit in English and they receive credit for their construction elective. Those teachers have some time built in as well, where they can work, during the non-class time to do some collaborative projects and assignments, things that match up together. For example, in the math class, they look at construction geometry; in the English class they do some reading and some writing that are based on the concepts of construction management.
