Core Extension vs. Enrichment
by Sophia
Core Extension is a new concept this year. Last year 7th and 8th grade had Enrichment. That was when groups of students would go to a core teacher and would learn about separate things from what you would learn everyday in class. Some people went to science enrichment and they would do things like science fair and other challenges. ELA enrichment could be things like vocab and writing groups. Enrichment was different for everyone. This year we have Core Extension. Instead of focusing on one subject, we cycle through all of our main classes. Every two days, we have a homeroom Core Extension, which is basically a study hall. We have Core Extension everyday, where Enrichment was only on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays.
