Students undertake two expeditions (cross curricular) per year. Although they may take some classes that are a little more stand alone, these are known as intensives and help increase student choice. I think this is useful in deciding how many "projects" to do per year.
Students have two student led conferences per year. These take place during the school day. When not in their conference they help class mates practice their presentations.
Teachers appear to teach a total of 90- 115 students per year.
Crew size is around 15 students.
Grade reports are issued three times per year as a measure of where you are now.
Expeditions last between 10 and 12 weeks. Each subject has there own part of the project. They try to support one another through howls and literacy (genre) strategies.
