Milton-Freewater District and Curriculum
The Milton-Freewater Unified School District follows the learning standards established by the Oregon Department of Education. The curriculum is based on standards which represent the individual learning goals that students should achieve in their courses. These are also tied to critical thinking strategies, real world concepts, and real world applications so that students develop a deep sense of the practicality of their learning. Students are also expected to participate in community outreach and may work on awareness campaigns or other community service during their school years.
We currently cover the following Milton-Freewater-area school district: Milton-Freewater Unified School District.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Milton-Freewater District Curriculum
In Language Arts, students develop comprehension skills yearly and build on previously learned decoding strategies and context clues to read new words. They learn to connect their own prior knowledge about a story, object or topic with new knowledge the story offers, to make inferences and predictions about story events. These comprehension and analysis skills also help students as they develop reading skills in non-fiction and need to evaluate an author’s purpose, point of view or bias, and evaluate the validity of their arguments.
In Math, during middle school students apply their fundamental math skills to solve multi-step and measurement problems. Students expand their knowledge of multiplying and dividing fractions and decimals to solve many kinds of rate and ratio problems. They understand that an unknown number (variable) in an equation makes the equation true and apply this concept to writing and solving math equations and expressions.

Chalk Talk: Setting Screen Time Policies
Parents today have to negotiate screen time differently than when they were growing up. Screen time used to mean time to relax in front of the tv, or maybe play a few rounds of Atari. Now, student learning via computer has increased so much that parents have to expect that their children will be in front of a screen a great deal more than they were ever allowed. As you determine rules with your child, set policies for both the school year and the summertime. Allow your children to use the tablet, the computer and video games as they have during the school year. Then determine an additional amount of time or times during the day to be on their devices and how they’re used to compensate for the extra time they’ll be at home. By forming an agreement and creating it together, you and your children will both feel better about the indoor activity they may be doing a lot of this during the summer.
