| Alice Carlson operates on an extended-year calendar, with school beginning in August on the same day as other Fort Worth ISD schools and ending in mid-June, about two weeks later than other FWISD schools. The school year is organized into four sessions of approximately nine weeks each. Our extended-year calendar allows us to schedule one-week "intersessions" in the fall and spring. During the intersessions many Carlson students choose to participate in our program of intersession workshops, which provide opportunities for both academics and enrichment. Academic workshops address targeted student needs in language arts and math. Enrichment workshops offer a variety of opportunities in such areas as drama, computers, crafts, and sports. |
