Mattoon District and Curriculum
The curriculum used in the district is based on the belief that all students should develop certain basic facilities and skills by the time the leave high school. Students should be able to use key skills and knowledge throughout the curriculum, whether it be in math or English language arts classes. History and science are also taught by providing students with fundamentals in the subject-area learning process and then following along key strands, or themes, that are central to the subject.
We currently cover the following Mattoon-area school district: Mattoon Community Unit School District 2.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Mattoon District Curriculum
Students should be able to read for comprehension and synthesize different readings. Students should be able to utilize various research techniques to collect, organize, analyze, and retain information. Students should also be able to use critical and analytical thinking to solve problems across the curriculum and transfer their acquired knowledge to real-life experiences. Students should have an understanding of technology and be able to use that and various other resources effectively and efficiently.
The hope is that students will take responsibility for their own learning in order to develop a lifelong love of learning which will help them become globally competitive. Students should demonstrate a commitment to make and exceed learning goals and evaluate their own progress. Furthermore, Mattoon High School believes in collaboration and diversity and strives to produce students who treat themselves and others respectfully.

Chalk Talk: College vs. University
There are several differences between a college and a university, but mostly they are superficial. The major difference is the way each is organized. Universities are organized into “colleges,” sometimes called schools, which tend to have a specific educational focus. A university might have a College of Business or Science, which tend to even have their own buildings. Colleges, on the other hand, don’t have this organization, and classes for different majors might exist in the same building more frequently. Universities tend to be larger, which is why they need the increased organization, though some are quite small. State schools tend to be universities. Either can be public of private. Either can offer any number of majors. Colleges are perceived as being more prestigious, but this isn’t always the case, either; consider that the University of Pennsylvania is an Ivy League school and one of the oldest in the country.
