Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Minden Hills District Curriculum
The Math curriculum has been designed so that elementary students learn the fundamentals of computation, measurement, representation of data, and ways to analyze and solve problems. In high school, the Foundations of Math in grade 9 provides a more in-depth course of algebraic equations and expressions, geometric functions and spatial reasoning, and ways in which data can be used as models or serve in a process of proportional reasoning.
The Science education students receive introduces them to concepts in basic physical science, biology, and earth and environmental science. The Foundations of Science in grade 9 emphasizes concepts in biology, chemistry, and physics which are geared to prepare students for the full-year offerings of Biology, Chemistry, and Physics during grades 10-12. In these courses, students are able to experiment and investigate major concepts and begin independent research of their own.

Chalk Talk: Choosing a Tutor
Oftentimes, independent tutors are college students looking for extra work, so they do not have as much experience. However, they may be great options, especially if they are majoring in education and have some experience working with children in an academic setting. These tutors may also have more flexible hours. Some schools districts might even offer free tutoring programs at which volunteer high school students tutor younger children—a great option if finances are very tight. One last factor is to look at is the availability of tutors. If parents simply seek a tutor to help their child sharpen some skills over the summer break, they can hire a tutor with seasonal availability. If tutoring is needed long-term, they should hire a tutor who is more reliable time-wise so that continuity can be established between the tutor and child.
