Jamestown  (CSi)  On Monday, the Jamestown Public School Board reviewed  incorporating a more college-type setting for high school students to better prepare for the future.

School Board members Diane Hanson and Steve Veldkamp addressed their tour of Bismarck’s  Legacy High School, one of 16 schools in the nation to use a flexible module schedule similar to staggered college courses instead of the traditional high school setting with all students on a one hour schedule.

The students attend classes at different times to keep the flow small and constant.

Veldkamp said the flexible module high school in Omaha has the highest college entrance examination scores in Nebraska.

Also at the meeting,  Superintendent Lech said the Citizen’s Advisory Committee is continuing meeting with designers, builders, faculty and community residents to understand the district needs.

The group is now prioritizing ideas for educational adequacy, facility needs and upgrades for safety, security and a healthy environment, he said.

The meeting was recorded by CSi Cable 67 with replays starting Tuesday.
