REAL-Time

REAL-Time is a new school-wide structure and program specifically designed to meet the needs of our diverse middle school learners and prepare them for academic success. All students participate in REAL-Time every day during 6th period for 25 minutes.

REAL-Time stands for relationships, engagement, academics and life skills. REAL-Time helps all students develop and strengthen relationships with other students and caring adults, take ownership of their learning, and develop important academic and life skills such as setting personal academic S.M.A.R.T. goals and learning organizational skills. Each month, classes focus on one PBIS Key of excellence and one aspect of the IB Learner Profile. REAL-Time classes are small (approximately 15 or fewer students) and consist of a mix of 6th, 7th and 8th grade students.

REAL-Time classes are grouped together and connected to a school counselor and administrator. A student’s REAL-Time teacher, administrator, and school counselor stay the same for all three years of middle school. To identify who your student’s administrator or counselor is, find his/her REAL-Time teacher on the table below.
