Canton District and Curriculum
The Canton Central School District (CCSD) provides residents with education from pre-kindergarten to grade twelve. The CCSD’s curriculum meets all requirements created by the New York State Education Department (NYSED). With its recent adoption of the Common Core State Standards (CCSS), the NYSED has assimilated federal guidelines into its own benchmarks and standards. The Common Core Learning Standards (CCLS) are the state’s version of Common Core, and at present, the state and districts’ curricula focus on English language arts and mathematics.
We currently cover the following Canton-area school district: Canton Central School District.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Canton District Curriculum
The curriculum at Banford Elementary School provides foundational academic instruction and developmentally appropriate activities to support children’s social and emotional growth. The school specifically designs its curriculum to use sequential instruction that builds upon students’ former learning experiences. Teachers offer instruction in writing, reading, speaking, and literacy for all subjects.
Secondary education begins in fifth grade, with students’ taking courses in core academics, technology, music, art, physical education, foreign languages, and other specialized and remedial courses. At the high school, students take courses in the aforementioned subjects; however, their instruction and options are more specialized to prepare them for post-secondary work. Students also have access to honors and Advanced Placement (AP) courses, as well as career and technical programs.

Chalk Talk: The Importance of Character Education
Character education programs have gained traction in many curricular programs throughout the United States. While the arguments for character education are hard to argue with regarding merit, local communities should support such programs because of their positive effects on intelligence. Many studies have indicated a positive correlation exists between social-emotional intelligence and academic intelligence. In addition, schools who offer character education programs, typically demonstrate outstanding academic achievement. While researchers cannot state with certainty the reasons for these correlations, it is clear that behaviors alter cognition. Students, who cooperate well with each other, listen to directions, and respect other ideas, will be more engaged in their learning experiences. Students may be more intrinsically motivated and may have insight into their own learning. These insights can help students with goal setting, self-monitoring, and a willingness to correct misunderstandings. Regardless of the reasons for the relationships between good character and academic success, it is apparent that more educational programs should offer these lessons to children whenever and wherever possible.
