Berkley District and Curriculum
The Berkley School District follows the Michigan Academic Standards that are laid out in the Michigan Merit Curriculum. The curriculum provides a detailed scope and sequence for learning in all core academic subjects and establishes targeted expectations that students need to meet in order to be prepared for their next school years. The expectations contain the different skills, concepts, and critical thinking opportunities that come with each subject and topic. Students also can avail themselves of learning opportunities such as Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, and Dual Enrollment and take on a college level curriculum during high school.

Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Berkley District Curriculum
Geometry is one part of the mathematics curriculum covered at Berkley School District. This mathematics subject includes the study of shapes and angles. It also includes all of the formulas that surround these items. Students learn what makes shapes specific and what kind of angles make up these shapes. They also find the perimeter and area of items, plus how to find the diameter and radius of circles.
At Berkley School District, students explore history. The teachers help to bring history to life by exposing the students to a variety of materials, including primary sources, such as interviews. By using these different resources the students become aware of the events and people that have led to the historic events. They also discover how to research a specific topic and place it in a form that can help others learn from the presentation. When the students have graduated, they will have discovered how one person or one event can affect all of history, including theirs.

Chalk Talk: Talking So A Teen-Ager Will Listen
When talking with a teen-ager, parents cannot always be sure that they are being heard. When the teen ignores a parent it is one way that they can have power in their lives. So when talking parents will benefit by remembering what the goal is for the conversation, then state it in a way that the teen understands. It also helps if a parent does not take the ignoring or yelling personally. Remember this is their way of obtaining power in this area. Do not become irate. Instead, keep calm and ate the facts again. If the temptation is there to yell, leave the room. Finally, when discussing rules, do not get involved talking about fairness. The teen can then try to turn the rules to their advantage. Just stick with the rules and let them know it is their job to follow them.
