Few school districts have ever gone as far as Mapleton in providing choices for students noted a recent Business Week article. They were describing the reinvention of Mapleton Public Schools, which is in its third year operating with a "small by design" system of schools. Over the past several years, Mapleton has personalized its learning communities and created college preparatory schools of choice. In 2008, nearly 100 percent of Mapleton seniors applied to college, and of those seniors 90% were accepted into the college of their choice. Mapleton's redesign has received national and international attention, and we invite you to join us for a tour of their diverse and innovative learning community.
