Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Jefferson District Curriculum

High school math students in Jefferson are able to take a variety of math classes, including probability and statistics. Students work with descriptive statistics, developing an understanding of central tendency, spread, clusters, and outliers. Graphical representations of data are also studied, with learners acquiring the skills to draw conclusions about the data based on its appearance. Students must also interpret mean, median, and mode, as well as range, variance, and standard deviation. Scatterplots are examined, with learners identifying and describing the relationship between two variables using the characteristics of their plots.

The civics and economics component of the history and social science curriculum begins with an exploration of the foundations of constitutional government. Principles such as consent of the governed, rule of law, and representative democracy are examined. Documents such as the Virginia Declaration of Rights, the Declaration of Independence, and the Articles of Confederation are analyzed for their impact on the structure of the U.S. government.

Chalk Talk: Benefits of Physical Education Courses

Whether due to budget cuts, staff shortages, or an increased focus on core content areas like math and language arts, students in some school districts no longer have physical education courses everyday. The reduction of P.E. classes strips students of the many benefits that such classes provide. Students involved in P.E. courses are more physically fit, and demonstrate improved fine and gross motor skills. There are wellness benefits too, including increased long-term cardiovascular health, improved respiration, and greater stamina. The activities involved in regular physical education classes also teach kids goal setting, teamwork, discipline, and personal responsibility. These qualities extend beyond the gym to other classes, where kids who take part in P.E. demonstrate a greater capacity for cooperation, leadership, self-confidence, and self-esteem than do their peers. P.E. classes are also an excellent stress reducer, as kids can release energy and exercise, which helps improve mood.
