BACKGROUND A new course, Introduction to Sewing and Design, will be added to the elective offerings for 7th grade students at LCHS. Based upon the recommendation of the LCHS administration and faculty, Introduction to Sewing and Design is an eight to ten week course that is part of the Exploratory Arts elective wheel and is one of five topics that 7th grade students will rotate through across the academic year. In future academic years, the 7/8 faculty and administration anticipates the Explorative Arts elective wheel to have only four topics included in it, thus making the course in future years ten weeks in duration.
CURRENT CONSIDERATIONS Please see the attached course description for Introduction to Sewing and Design.
FINANCIAL IMPACT The financial impact will be in ongoing professional development of teachers and additional supplemental materials and equipment as determined by the 7/8 faculty and administration.
