Springdale District and Curriculum

The Arkansas Department of Education provides Springdale Public Schools support in the areas of instruction and assessment. The curriculum is based on the Common Core Standards, which have been adopted by most states, including Arkansas in 2010. These standards ensure that all U.S. students are held to the same accountability and are prepared for both college and career when they graduate from high school. For the first time in education in the United States, the Common Core Standards also are influenced by the standards in other top-performing countries.

Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Springdale District Curriculum

Springdale Public Schools has developed instructional pacing guides for all grade levels and subjects to ensure that instruction is appropriate and timely, and that all standards are implemented. The pacing guides are extremely thorough so that all teachers have a reference document to guide their practice. For instance, the math pacing guides include the learning standards, objectives, tasks, vocabulary, materials, and resources.

In addition to developing curricular materials to guide instruction, there are many programs to further support its students. At all grade levels, students participate in E-STEM+2 initiative activities in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics so that they develop career awareness about these areas and become interested in majoring in these fields in college. Students in grades 2-7 who are gifted or talented receive 150 minutes/week of enriched instruction by licensed teachers of the gifted.

Arkansas Tutors

It is my firm conviction that the goal of education is not only the mastery of a subject matter but the mastery of thought. Young people should not always be told what to think but rather should be taught how to think. The ability to think through things critically is essential to life in general. My role as a professional is to inspire young minds to think critically and ask questions in order to ignite confidence and in turn excellence.
My philosophy begins with meeting the needs of each individual student. A famous philosopher once said, “A society grows great when faithful men plant trees whose shade they will never sit under.” I firmly believe that each student can be great, but it takes faithful, diligent work to reach them. Years from now, I believe I will see the prosperity of my work by seeing the prosperity of the student.
I believe that each student learns differently, but it is important for all of them to take ownership of what they are learning. Linking the material even in a small way to their own life will assist them greatly in learning it.
