PACE

PACE is entering our ninth year providing support for students placed on suspension during the school year.  Our program is a choice for students to gain or recover classes they would have lost while suspended.  Students are referred to PACE by their building principal.

Our top priority here at PACE is to help students find academic, personal, and lifelong success.  At PACE, students are able to re-capture credits they have lost by working hard and being dedicated to their academic goals.  The PACE staff is dedicated to seeing your child succeed.

Students utilize an online learning community called APEX, a cyber-center for academic choices.  We also provide physical education in the form of a rope course, which will challenge their inner being, leadership, and teamwork ability.  Students have a variety of curriculum courses to choose from as they pursue their middle school/high school education.  We ensure appropriate placement through our application process.

MSBSD will also provide students with Prime for Life (Intervention for Drug and Alcohol Abuse) and other skills they will need in life, such as, college readiness, peer pressure, resume building, and interview skills.  However, our focus is academic.

PACE classes are Monday through Friday, from 8:00 to 1:50.  Breakfast and lunch are free for all students.  This year is a little different in that we will provide an academic education for 8th grade and high school students.  Upon the interview, if you need bussing we can arrange it for you.  We are located on the BHS campus on West Nicola, facing Wasilla Bible Church.

If you or your student are interested in attending PACE, please see your building principal first before contacting the PACE Principal, Lebron McPhail, to discuss your options with this program.
