Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Gardnerville District Curriculum

The curriculum in Mathematics covers the topics of numerical operations, algebraic operations, geometry, statistics and probability, trigonometry and pre-calculus/calculus. During the elementary years, students learn the foundations of many of these topics through their learning about numbers, operations, patterns, shapes, spatial awareness and other topics. These form the foundation for what students will need to learn about algebra or geometry.

The Language Arts curriculum is organized around reading, writing, speaking and listening, and research skills. These are generally intertwined and students write to respond to the texts they read and learn discussion skills by discussing the books they read. There is a strong emphasis on writing as students need to be able to write for a variety of purposes and be able to communicate their ideas clearly while also providing supporting evidence to their claims.

Chalk Talk: Strategic Planning and Successful Program Implementation

Effective strategic planning is essential to successful program implementation. When school administrations are planning any sort of program change, it is essential that all staff and teachers who will be affected are allowed to be a part of the strategic planning process. If teachers will be most affected by the proposed program, they need to have input so that they will be able to develop a feeling of ownership. If teachers are not included in the process, but are simply given the changes and asked to implement them, more than likely program implementation will not be successful. If, however, they have work invested in the strategic planning process, they will be more inclined to make the program work. Strategic planning does not, however, end after implementation. Administrators need to put into effect a system by which teachers can report what is working and what isn’t. By catching problems as they occur, there is a better chance for program success.
