Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Independence District Curriculum
Independence Public Schools has developed a challenging and personally rewarding curriculum for its students, striving to educate each pupil and shape the next generation of creative thinkers. English Language Arts begins with a solid foundation in punctuation, sentence structure, and reading skills. Text analysis and cross-disciplinary application of literary works are strengthened in middle and high school, bridging earlier knowledge with relevant applications.
In Mathematics, the curriculum coaches young students to recognize number patterns and solve problems with whole numbers. Upper grades employ graph theory and number matrices, with topics ranging from geometry and algebra to statistics and calculus. Potential careers that utilize mathematics are also explored.

Chalk Talk: Volunteering – It Can Change Your Perspective!
Not sure how to spend your summer vacation? Want a job, but are either too young or not sure where to look? Volunteering can help you gain priceless experience in a field you may never have explored before. Local museums, zoos and aquaria are great places to look for volunteer opportunities if you are interested in the arts or sciences. Nursing homes and local hospitals will often accept applications or requests from young applicants who want to give back to their community and explore the health sciences. State parks and historic sites are good places for history buffs to hone public speaking and academic skills. Even if volunteer jobs do not pay in sums, they pay off in lifelong connections with peers and adults interested in a particular job field.
