Programación académica
Olson Middle School’s academic program is designed to create a dynamic & inclusive learning environment where all students are empowered to succeed. Their framework uses evidence-based practices, including the International Baccalaureate (IB) Approaches to Learning & the Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol (SIOP) Model, to foster curiosity & conceptual understanding.
The school’s core commitment is to help every student ‘Be Ready to Learn.’ This means providing daily, high-quality grade-level instruction that is rigorous & engaging for all. To ensure the school meets every student’s needs, they dedicate time to “Whatever I Need” (WIN) Time. This structured period allows staff to provide targeted support or enrichment, helping students to ‘Be Responsible’ for their own learning, & to ‘Be Respectful’ of their academic journey & the journey of others. This comprehensive approach ensures that Olson Middle School meets students where they are, empowering them to become skilled, confident, & autonomous learners.
Programación de educación especial
Olson Middle School is committed to ensuring every student, including those with Individualized Education Programs (IEPs), has the support needed to succeed.
Students with IEPs receive specialized instruction & accommodations, as outlined in their individualized plans. This ensures they are ready to learn with access to the necessary resources, such as modified curriculum, assistive technology, or small-group instruction, that remove barriers to their academic success.
These students are taught to be responsible by actively participating in their learning & advocating for their needs. Through a process of self-advocacy & goal-setting, students are empowered to take ownership of their educational journey.
Furthermore, Olson Middle School ensures a respectful & inclusive environment, where the unique needs of every learner are honored. Special education services are integrated within the school’s framework, including during Whatever I Need (WIN) Time, ensuring all students receive the targeted support they need, while being valued members of the school community.
Programación de aprendizaje del idioma Inglés
Olson Middle School is committed to ensuring every student, including English Language Learners (ELLs), has the support needed to succeed. This commitment is central to their values.
The school has three certified English language teachers who provide specialized support to students based on their World-Class Instructional Design & Assessment (WIDA) standards. This support is delivered through a combination of pull-out classes & co-taught classes, using the Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol (SIOP) Model to make content accessible.
Olson Middle School is also the middle school site for the district’s Hmong Dual Language Pathway. This program fosters biliteracy & biculturalism, empowering students to continue their academic journey in both English & Hmong.
By offering these programs, the school ensures a respectful & inclusive environment where all students are valued, & their unique linguistic & cultural backgrounds are celebrated as they become confident, bilingual learners.
