Brookhaven District and Curriculum
The goal of the South County Central School District’s innovative curriculum is to provide students with the skills and knowledge needed to be successful in a globally competitive world. The Brookhaven School District offers a rigorous academic program that implements an on-going process of continuous curriculum review designed to promote student achievement and help all students reach their highest potential. To accomplish this, district personnel continuously review the curriculum to ensure its effectiveness and that it is aligned with the New York State P-12 Common Core Learning Standards.
We currently cover the following Brookhaven-area school district: South County Central School District.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Brookhaven District Curriculum
The Common Core Standards are a single set of clear standards utilized in all New York school districts and in forty five states across the country. These standards help provide today’s students with a high quality education that prepares them for success in college and careers. The English/Language Arts standards focus on reading, writing, speaking and listening. Based on the revised standards, students in the district will be required to read more challenging fiction and non-fiction text, and learn about the world through reading.
The revised math standards provide a more in-depth focus of fewer concepts. In the elementary grades, teachers will help students build a strong foundation, skills, and knowledge across grade levels in the areas of whole numbers, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, decimals and fractions. This foundation will helps students to use math facts easily, think fast and solve problems, really know and understand mathematical principals and use math in the real world.

Chalk Talk: Talking to Kids About the News
The world we live in is connected around the clock through the use of TV, the internet, smart phones, and social media.The following are some suggestions for talking to children about disturbing news events: 1) Be honest when talking to children – there is no reason to go into more detail then your child is interested in. Children should feel safe after your conversation 2) Encourage children to discuss their fears openly and honestly. Older youth and teens may require a more detailed explanation of the events. Listen closely and help them cope with their fears. 3) Watch the news with your child 4) Turn off news stories that you feel may be inappropriate for your child to view. 5) Have frequent discussions with your children and other family members regarding current events. 6) Help your child put news stories in the proper perspective. Try to make youth understand that this may be an isolated event and that sometimes good can come from a disaster, such as a community joining together to collect supplies for victims of a natural disaster. 7) Ensure your child has access to magazines and newspapers created especially for youth and listens to public broadcasting and children’s news.
