Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Hawthorn Woods District Curriculum

The Illinois Learning Standards curriculum is meant to provide a competitive education which will ensure students will be capable of achieving success after graduation, whether they pursue post-secondary education or directly enter the workforce. Students are given clear expectations for what they should learn, and teachers are given the freedom to modify their lesson plans to fit the individual needs of students, whether that mean to help struggling students catch up to grade level, or providing challenging work.

In this way, teachers strive for success for every student, which is another tenet of the districts goals. Teaching students how to take responsibility for their learning is another goal. To that end, students are expected to participate in community service projects and present what they learned from the experience. Students are held accountable for their own educations as well as their own behaviors; they are taught to take personal responsibility in the hopes that they will become engaged, successful citizens after graduation.

Chalk Talk: Early Decision

Early Decision (ED) are early, binding applications. Students apply, usually by November 1st, and sign a contract agreeing to attend this college if accepted. This can be beneficial, since colleges tend to favor students willing to make this commitment. Acceptance rates for Early Decision applicants tend to be significantly higher than Regular Decision. One downside is that they are binding, which means students must attend the college if accepted, even if they are offered a better financial aid package elsewhere. Other than being binding, Early Decision applications don’t differ from other applications in any meaningful way. The early due-date is a hard date; even standardized test scores must be received by that date for the application to be considered.
