For students with Individualized Education Plans (IEP) and for some students with a 504 plan, the Content Mastery Center (CMC) provides a quiet environment with support to help succeed in their classes and accomplish their goals.

• Qualifying students may have one period/day in an assigned CMC class, which is similar to a supervised study hall with staff svailable to provide assistance in completing work for regular classes.
• Students may also come to the CMC from General Education classes for assistance or to have tests read to them or to take tests at any time during the school day.

Students assigned to In-School Suspension are also housed in the Content Mastery Center for the duration of their suspension.

Marilyn Cleveland supervises the Content Mastery Center and coordinates class work with teachers.  Mrs Cleveland is also responsible for the NDE-51 and Ogallala Public Schools paperwork for those students.
