A New Vision for Advanced Learning in Seattle Public Schools

Whitman currently uses the self-contained model of Spectrum classes. District identified students are placed in courses designed to challenge students that have mastered the basics at their grade level. They are encouraged to "go deeper, broader, faster and further in their learning".

Whitman is working to develop an accredited Advanced Learner Program.
This is one of the Transformation goals that the staff has set for the school.
