Description Fargo Charter School serves grades kindergarten through fifth grade using departmentalization as its classroom configuration. Students in kindergarten and first grade are heterogeneously combined in one classroom, where as students in second grade and third grade are heterogeneously combined in another classroom. Students are grouped in various ways (cooperative learning groups, small group instruction, inclusion, individual workstations, achievement level groups, and whole group instruction); therefore, some multi-age grouping of students occurs as well. Each combination classroom is limited to a pupil teacher class ratio of 20:1 and grade ratio of 10:1, resulting in a maximum school size of 40 students. Students living within the Fargo Charter School attendance zone (Fargo mail route) receive first priority for enrollment in those classes; however, should the number of students residing in the Fargo Charter School attendance zone exceed 10 per grade, the extra students would be accepted.
Application and Selection Students residing in the Fargo Charter School attendance zone (Fargo mail route) are afforded the opportunity to enroll first. In the event that additional enrollment spaces are available, students living outside the Fargo Charter School attendance zone and attending other Clinch County schools are allowed to submit an application. Additional enrollment spaces will be filled using a lottery process.
