Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Gloucester District Curriculum
Gloucester Public Schools use several resources to enhance its curriculum. These include the Lexia Core 5 literacy program for elementary students, Study Island for math and reading skills, and a virtual campus. Additionally, the district has piloted the PARCC assessment, which helps better prepare students for college and their careers. Beyond the cycle of teaching, learning, and assessments, students also have extracurricular opportunities that can help them achieve their career or academic goals.
The learning standards identify the key skills and knowledge students should acquire each year and ways to integrate learning across subject areas. This has the benefit of not only having the students learn the Science standards, but also has them practicing their Language Arts standards as well. This integration can also be done in History by having students read a historical-fiction novel about the Civil War. As students integrate learning across all subjects, they begin to see the real-life applications of the standards they are learning.

They include after-school music and gardening science at O’Maley Middle School, a social dance class at the elementary level, physics of robotics courses at Gloucester High School, and a visiting artist program districtwide. Over the years, GEF has helped bring in $3 million to the district, and after accepting periodic donations, it will soon host its first large-scale fundraising event.
Chalk Talk: Educational Jargon: Block Scheduling
Block scheduling refers to longer periods of instruction that allow more time for teachers and students to spend on a content area. While typical periods of instruction last about 40 minutes, block scheduling periods may span from 70 to 140 minutes. With a great deal of time being dedicated to literacy and math due to the No Child Left Behind Act and state standardized assessments, most elementary schools implement block scheduling for those two content areas. Oftentimes, most of the morning is dedicated to English language arts, while math instruction occurs in the early afternoon when students return from lunch and recess. Block scheduling may be incorporated at the secondary level as well. Teachers of different content areas may collaborate and plan a double-period that intertwines the two subjects. Block scheduling is an effective educational tool because it allows students to study topics more in-depth with less fear of lessons being cut short due to time.
