Stouffville District Curriculum Used in Our In-Home Tutoring Programs
The York Region District School Board and York Catholic District School Board both follow the Ontario Curriculum which is a progressive, standards-based curriculum. The Ontario Curriculum describes the scope of learning in each academic subject and the grade-level skills that students need to be developing. The Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test (OSSLT) is used to measure that students have gained the skills necessary to do advanced work in any subject. During the early years, the emphasis on literacy has been expanded to focus more on non-fiction so that students can read effectively in all subject areas.
We currently cover the following Stouffville-area school districts: York Region District School Board and York Catholic District School Board.

Chalk Talk: What to Expect in Junior Year
By the time students are juniors in high school, they are beginning to feel a certain freedom plus anxiety when they think about their future. They are reminded frequently that they need to pay attention to their academic credentials and their personal profile. For these reasons, the teen may be up and down, between confidence one second and fear over the SATs and ACTS. Parents should still set boundaries for manners and respect. Even if the teens emotions are all-over the place, they need to have empathy for others. Often teens of this age like to focus on logic and they like challenging the parents, especially if it raises emotions. With all of this in mind, parents also need to realize that they are still the best sounding board for these children. If these doors are opened early they may become more comfortable talking about difficult subjects with the parents.
