Ripley District and Curriculum

Ripley Public Schools empower and motivate their students by implementing the Core Curriculum State Standards under the Mississippi Department of Education. The Common Core is a nationwide effort at instilling a series of objectives that help students to progress through the grades within each subject. By following along major topics of the subject, the Common Core introduces increasing rigor at each grade level.

We currently cover the following Ripley-area school district: South Tippah School District.

Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Ripley District Curriculum

In the Social Studies curriculum at Ripley Schools, the local association that students have with their surroundings is the launching point. Students begin by learning about their neighborhoods and the people that are a part of it. Throughout the rest of their education they learn about the history of their area, as well as the geography and culture. This expands even further when they learn about the state of Mississippi, the nation, and the world.

Students at Ripley Schools begin to enjoy books through the reading section of the Language Arts curriculum. They may begin by learning how to hold a book and associate the words on the page with the illustrations but they continue as their level of education goes up. These students learn to progress at their own speed through the use of Accelerated Readers. They also see the correlation between the other subjects they are studying and the stories they read. When they are in high school they are able to go more in-depth by concentrating on one area of literature, such as American Literature or Short Stories.

Chalk Talk: Importance of First Grade Science

In first grade, students begin to use their hands to explore the world of science. Through a lot of exploration children begin to learn different ways of learning about their world. They learn that by applying heat ice can turn into water. Then when even more heat is added it can change again into steam. They may begin to wonder at the sight of the first butterfly in the spring, or the scent that a flower gives off and the importance of this scent. These first steps in science help open a child’s senses to the science that is all around them and create a future scientist.
