Jackson Township District and Curriculum
The Jackson School District is the only public school district in the township of Jackson. The district includes five elementary schools, two middle schools and two high schools. Students in these schools are educated with the mantra of “Scholarship, character and initiative” in mind. While the district has developed curricula that support the New Jersey Common Core Standards Initiative, they have taken special steps to develop an exciting and rigorous mathematics curriculum that ensures Jackson’s students will get the best possible mathematics education.
We currently cover the following Jackson Township-area school district: Jackson School District.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Jackson Township District Curriculum
The Jackson School District curriculum follows the New Jersey Common Core Standards, which outline student performance standards in nine core areas. Jackson students will notice a special emphasis on achievement in mathematics, as the district has focused its efforts on revising the math curriculum for grades 6-12. New resources for teachers will provide enriched learning environments for their math students, while investments in district technology will benefit students who can utilize online resources.
Students at McAuliffe Middle School and Goetz Middle School are expected to demonstrate a deep understanding of mathematical concepts before moving on to high school. Eighth graders learn the difference between rational and irrational numbers, how to apply the properties of integer exponents and how to use functions to model relationships between quantities. Once students move on to Jackson Liberty High School or Jackson Memorial High School, they will continue developing their math skills in increasingly complex math classes.

Chalk Talk: How to Build Confidence for Taking a Test
For some, testing is an anxiety-inducing experience. But in today’s educational climate, testing is heavily emphasized. Not only are students tested on local or district assessments, they are also tested according to state and national standards. But there are several simple things you can do to build confidence before taking that big exam. First, be sure to check your answers. Never hand in your test unless you have thoroughly checked to ensure that every question has an answer. Even if you aren’t sure if the answer is correct, you have a better chance of getting it right than if you leave it blank. Second, ask questions. If you don’t understand something – a question, a word, the possible answers on a multiple choice question – ask! While your teacher can’t give you the answer, they can certainly explain parts of the question that you don’t understand. Finally, study before the test. Work with your friends or parents to go over essential material. Develop flash cards with key terms on one side and key terms on the other. Whatever you do, don’t head into a test unprepared!
