The One Subject Plan at Fork Union

academic spotlight

In a typical school, a single teacher may be responsible for several classes of students, up to 100 students or more. At Fork Union, each teacher is responsible for just one class of about 10 to 15 students. In a typical school, a student must juggle 4 to 6 classes every day. At Fork Union, each student can concentrate on only one class for an entire grading term. We call it the One Subject Plan.
