Choices Middle School
Choices Middle School
is an alternative program for regular and special education middle school students that have been referred to a third party hearing process at FWISD due to various behavior issues. Students are referred to Solutions High School for violating the FWISD's zero tolerance policy for violence, weapons, drugs, and/or other offenses.
Philosophy
The rationale for providing alternative educational programs exists in the knowledge that students do their best academically when they have the opportunity to experience success in their educational environment. This is reinforced by the positive implementation of social skills, positive reinforcement, and pro social activities.
