Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Oswego District Curriculum
The curriculum is drawn from the Illinois Common Core Standards, which strives to teach students to critical thinkers who use analytical thinking to gather information, analyze that information, and evaluate and refine strategies for solving problems. Students should be able to read for comprehension and synthesis, use a variety of techniques, resources, and technology to gather information. Students should be effective communicators who speak and write clearly and expressively. Students should understand and apply a core body of knowledge and skills across the curriculum.
It is hoped that students will take responsibility for their own learning. The end goal of this curriculum is to prepare students for post-secondary educations and the working world. Students must be able to operate within a global context and work within a variety of groups to achieve goals. Therefore, students must also demonstrate ethical behavior and respect different for individuals, cultures, races, and genders.

Chalk Talk: Differences Between Colleges and Universities
The literal difference between a college and a university has to do with how the school is organized. A university is organized into schools or colleges, usually based on majors or academic similarities. So there might be a school of business or a college of engineering. These schools operate somewhat independently and might require separate admission into that specific school. These schools operate under the umbrella of the university. A college, on the other hand, doesn’t have this tightly structured organization. Colleges tend to be smaller than universities, though some universities are quite small, and a handful of colleges might even be larger than some universities. But the largest centers of higher education are universities. Universities tend to have more graduate programs, though colleges often have a handful of graduate programs. State schools tend to be universities, regardless of size.
