Cooper High School Launches Innovative Program To Boost Academics

4:42 PM | Monday, April 25, 2022

Cooper High School is taking an innovative approach to helping students struggling academically. Robbinsdale school officials say a large percentage of students have failing grades. They say many students had a hard keeping up with their schoolwork during the height of the pandemic.

“It kind of created a loss of learning opportunity for many students. Being at home was not always beneficial for someone who needs that in-person day-to-day instruction,” explained Cooper High School Principal Frank Herman.

Cooper High School launches a program called W.I.N. Wednesday. Students who are failing get extra help and attend school, while students are passing can stay at home.

He says they desperately needed to do something to get students back on track. They came up with a program called “W.I.N. Wednesday, which stands for —What I Need. Scholars with passing grades can stay home on Wednesday, while students who have a ‘D’ or failing grade attend school.

On Wednesdays, no new materials are being taught. Instead, teachers are working in smaller groups, reviewing previous lessons. Students who are making the grade can still attend school on Wednesday. The goal of the program is to ensure each student is successful.

“Support students academically, socially, and emotionally and have it be very intentional and targeted,” said Herman.
