Brighton District and Curriculum
Brighton, New York, is part of the Brighton Central School District, which also serves parts of Monroe County. The district, which has 3,700 students, is made up of one primary school, one elementary school, one middle school, and one high school. Brighton’s math and English Language Arts students are taught using a curriculum that is based on internationally benchmarked Common Core Standards that the state of New York adopted in 2011. The curricular objectives are based on the major strands within each subject so that students reading and writing, or operational and problem-solving abilities are strengthened each year.
We currently cover the following Brighton-area school district: Brighton Central School District.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Brighton District Curriculum
Brighton’s English Language Arts Students are taught to be close, attentive readers. They read a wide variety of physical and digital fiction and non-fiction texts. Students are expected to develop the ability to understand and enjoy complex texts, and to demonstrate the ability to distinguish between the good and bad information found in the texts they encounter, particularly via the internet, each day. They are further expected to be able to incorporate and present other ideas within their own work.
Brighton’s math students gain knowledge of core mathematics concepts in the earliest grades, and then go on to refine and develop that knowledge as they make their way through each subsequent grade. Students are expected to be capable of concrete thinking, abstract reasoning, precise communication, and problem solving. Brighton also offers a full range of core classes and electives. Included among these classes are music, health, and social studies. The curricula for these classes are based on standards that the state adopted in 1996 and revised in 2005.

Chalk Talk: Study Break
High school has changed a lot over the years. There was a time when a high schooler’s biggest fear was being socially awkward. Now, students fear not being successful enough. Students have taken the idea that high school is training for college to heart. They work hard, and then turn around and find ways to work even harder. Often, they stress about things that, in the scheme of things, are just not that important. As parents, it is our job to remind them that they are still kids, not adults-in-training. Sometimes it's good to let a kid stay home from school for another cultural opportunity or special event. Taking a breather will remind him or her that the world will not fall apart if he or she slows down a little bit, and that’s good, because in today’s world taking time to slow down is more important than ever.
