This document discusses strategies for implementing non-traditional educational programs to engage at-risk students. It describes the Choices program at Scottsbluff High School, which aims to reconnect disconnected students to education through alternative assessments, enrichment opportunities, and a smaller, safer learning environment. The program's goals are to improve standardized test scores, prevent dropouts, offer relevant instruction, and function as a Tier 2 intervention for the main high school to create effective learning environments for all students. Key aspects of implementation discussed are building relationships, quality teaching, and providing flexible learning opportunities.
