The curriculum of the Berkeley Heights Public Schools is aligned with the recommendations of the New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards and the Common Core State Standards. Students must demonstrate proficiency on standards in nine core areas, each of which have grade-level benchmarks to track student progress.

As part of the health and physical education curriculum, students take part in lessons that teach about character development and what it means to be a person of high moral values. The elementary curriculum helps students understand that character is determined by a person’s actions, words, thoughts and feelings. The middle school curriculum helps students understand situations in which their character might be challenged, as well as ways in which they can help others develop good character. In high school, students analyze how peer pressure impacts one’s decision-making and how decisions made can impact how people view their character.

Chalk Talk: Great Reasons to Read Often
If your child struggles to read or just doesn’t like it, it’s important for you to encourage them to read as much as possible. Children who struggle to read will only get better with practice, and children who prefer to play video games rather than read can also garner many benefits. Reading is a great way to relax. Studies show that when people read blood pressure and heart rate are reduced. As such, reading is an effective pre-bed preparation for a good night’s sleep. Reading also improves vocabulary, reading comprehension and memory skills. Students who read often consistently perform better on standardized tests. Lastly, reading is a great way for children to learn empathy. By losing themselves in a character’s story, children learn how to identify with others and experience the character’s emotions.
