Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Sunbury District Curriculum

The Math curriculum begins with basics during elementary school and moves towards being able to identify and solve real world problems involving fractions, decimals, percents and ratios. Students are prepared for algebra, geometry and statistics during the middle school years through learning about ways to understand relationships, measure different types of geometric shapes, measure area and volume, and how to understand quantitative data.

In high school, students are expected to follow a curriculum that will prepare them for college and career. English/Language Arts curriculum focuses upon skills that will be needed to gain information from increasingly complex texts combined with the ability to critically write and speak about texts. Students use critical reading and thinking strategies to evaluate sources and synthesize meaning from them. They are encouraged to make a plan before beginning to read to help them develop full comprehension of the material.
