A change at two Central Minnesota schools is going smoothly in its first year. The Little Falls Community School Board approved Grade Level Banding (GLB) last February.
The plan to change Lincoln Elementary to preschool through grade 2 and Lindbergh Elementary to 3rd through 5th grade was implemented this fall. Superintendent Greg Johnson says teachers and staff worked hard to make the change as student friendly as possible:
“One of the things that has gone really well is transportation, we were very anxious about how our transportation changes would go and with shuttling students back and forth between the district and that's gone kind of surprisingly well.”
