Alcoa District Curriculum Used in Our In-Home Tutoring Programs
The Alcoa City Schools’ Mission Statement is “Graduating Competitive Students, Building Relationships, Rigorous Expectations, Relevant Instruction.” Alcoa City Schools transformed their curriculum to follow the Common Core Standards during the 2013-2014 school year. This means they have a great emphasis on reading more complex works, and then they are required analyze the text in terms of understanding the vocabulary, problem solving, and writing about the text. This ensures understanding by measuring their comprehension in a variety of ways.
We currently cover the following Alcoa-area school district: Alcoa City Schools.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Alcoa District Curriculum
Mathematics assignments will require students to demonstrate concepts rather than just finding an answer. The idea is so that students will succeed later on in the higher levels of mathematics. This means demonstrating multiple methods of reaching an answer. Mathematic literacy, the ability to work with word problems and understand the language of math, as well as the ability to communicate mathematic though and work process are also goals of the curriculum. Being able to further draw upon quantitative information to perform abstract or logical reasoning is one of the higher end goals sought for students.
Alcoa City Schools also offers many course options for Social Studies, Technical Programs, Science, and many other subjects. In all of these subjects students will be required to emphasize analytical skills, problem solving, critical thinking, literary skills, and mathematical deduction. This will help students develop all of their skills as they grown and learn.

Chalk Talk: The Importance of Teacher-Parent Communication
One of the most important factors for student success is teacher-parent communication. For instance, in some of our younger grades we offer “Friday Folders” as written communication for each week. This gives teachers and parents to more effectively communicate to the benefit of the students. It is key to open channels of communication between teachers and parents, parents and administration staff, students and teachers, and parents and students. Having open communication benefits students in a way that it keeps parents directly involved with their children. Students spend eight hours a day at school, sometimes even more than that! Collaboration between parents and teachers is not only important, but it is imperative. This has to extend farther than parent-teacher conferences. This relationship may not always be an easy one to foster, but this open communication will breed trust and help your child feel more secure and confident at school. Your child probably trusts you more than anyone else and by indicating your trust of this person, your child will soon follow.
