Garden City District and Curriculum

The schools that serve Garden City base their curriculums on the Idaho Common Core standards. This curriculum is intended to prepare students for college and career and sets clear, rigorous expectations for the work students should complete, and the knowledge they should gain, by the completion of each academic year. Students who fall behind grade level are given support and interventions, and students who progress beyond grade level are given advanced work.

We currently cover the following Garden City-area school districts: Boise Independent School District and West Ada School District.

Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Garden City District Curriculum

Teachers are given the freedom to plan and execute their own lessons, which can be catered to the needs of their students. The curriculum is compared to other curriculums across the country in order to make it competitive and so that students receive current, relevant learning so that they’ll be prepared for the future when they graduate.

The curriculum focuses on critical thinking and reasoning, conceptual understanding, and real-world applications of lessons. Students read and write analytically and are taught science literacy while also being exposed to technical subjects. Students must communicate effectively, both orally and through writing, and must be active listeners who participate well in group work. The ultimate goal of the curriculum is to instill in students a love of learning which will guide them through their futures, whether they pursue post-secondary education or immediately enter the workforce.

Chalk Talk: Community College vs. State College

There are many positives to community colleges that some students may not have considered. Many of the instructors are community colleges are adjuncts, which means they teach part time, often while working within their fields. This can mean that students have access to experts who are familiar with current practices. This is especially true in the arts. Community colleges are much cheaper than state colleges, but one drawback is that community colleges only offer basic-level classes, so students have to transfer eventually. Classes tend to be much smaller at community colleges, especially when considering that the basic-level classes offered are the same ones almost everyone has to take, so they can get quite full at a state college. The curriculum at a community college and a state college are both mandated by the state, so the quality of education shouldn’t differ tremendously.
