Dennis District and Curriculum
Dennis-Yarmouth Public Schools are shared by the neighboring towns of Dennis and Yarmouth. The district is comprised of six schools— two elementary schools with grades K-3, two elementary schools with grades four and five, a middle school, and a high school—and 3,350 students. There are two “Innovation Schools”—one with grades K-3 and the other with 4-5—that provide students with enriching activities and are dedicated to wellness. Both of these innovation schools are located in West Dennis.
We currently cover the following Dennis-area school district: Dennis-Yarmouth Regional School District.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Dennis District Curriculum
The Wixon Innovation School has added 40 minutes to each school day, which equates to 17 extra days. In order to enhance student learning, the teachers work in teams in weekly professional development communities. Overall, the innovation schools are unique in that they aim to make the most out of each school day by adding blocks of uninterrupted learning time, providing opportunities for struggling students to receive extra help, incorporating weekly enrichment groups for gifted learners, integrating authentic reading instruction, increasing music and the arts instruction, focusing on problem solving in math and engineering, and offering smaller class sizes.
The district’s Office of Instruction has educational coaches that provide resources, collect and analyze student data, have specialized knowledge of the curriculum, support and mentor classroom teachers, are experts in the best instructional practices, are catalysts for necessary change, are leaders, and are lifelong learners.

Chalk Talk: How Parents Can Connect Home and School
It is important for parents to create educational opportunities for their students in the home, and it is even more beneficial if these experiences connect and are specific to what students are doing and learning in school. Parents should always be informed of what their children are doing in school. Most teachers send home regular newsletters and/or create class websites with the goings-on. It is advantageous to focus on areas in which students struggle, designing activities around these concepts or skills. Since the child is already frustrated by this content, it would be a good idea to integrate fun activities or educational games that are relevant. Parents should be aware of struggle areas through communication with teachers as well as observing their children doing homework. Parents can also discretely have their child practice math through routine tasks. For example, if a child is learning measurements in school, parents can work on this concept with the child while they are baking. Of course, technology should not be forgotten; parents should be on the lookout for educational websites and/or online games that connect to what their child is learning.
