Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Marion District Curriculum

In English Language Arts, students will read independently and understand increasingly complex materials. When writing, students will write clearly and effectively using correct grammar, punctuation, and spelling. They will also write for different audiences and purposes (i.e., to entertain, persuade, describe, analyze, inform) and will use effective listening and speaking skills. These skills are taught in an integrated fashion and across subject areas.

In Social Studies, students will learn how different groups of people have influenced others and how different events and societal changes have changed local and worldwide history. They will study human rights and figure out what civic responsibility means to them. Students will examine maps, the effects of the environment on different people, and the role of producers and consumers in the global economy. The Social Studies curriculum encourages intercultural awareness, historical perspective, and a way to introduce concepts such as political systems.

Chalk Talk: What Are the Differences Between Public Schools and Charter Schools?

Public schools are funded by the government and, by law, are required to accept very child in their district. Charter schools are created by the teachers, parents, and the community. Charter schools do receive some financing from the government as well as outside financing. The demographics of the public school can vary widely based on the location of the school. Charter schools usually have an application process in order to be admitted and have the ability to limit the students they admit. Public school teachers teach the educational standards that are set by the state. Charter school teachers have to meet the same state educational requirements; however, they have more freedom in offering a variety of electives.
