Montague District and Curriculum
Gill-Montague Regional School District serves students in the communities of Gill, Montague, and Erving (grades 7-12). The district’s core values revolve around persistence, integrity, empathy, and continuous learning. The school offers courses at the AP, honors, and traditional levels as well as internships, school-to-work opportunities, and life skills. Additionally, the school allows juniors and seniors to participate in an early entrant program, which involves them enrolling in college courses either part- or full-time while earning both high school and college credits. Turner Falls High School is committed to integrating the Common Core Standards through teaching that adheres to the core learning expectations.
We currently cover the following Montague-area school district: Gill-Montague Regional School District.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Montague District Curriculum
Gill-Montague shows a commitment to providing high-quality educators with a variety of ongoing professional development to help them grow professionally as well as cultivate student success. The district has a 9th Grade Academy in which ninth grade teachers of core content areas help ease the transition from middle to high school for freshmen students. Freshman year is very important, as ninth graders who do well in school are more likely to be successful the rest of their high school careers and to graduate.
Another important feature of the high school curriculum is research. Each subject requires that students conduct independent research and learn how to use library resources associated with the subject matter. Students learn how to navigate library research databases and how to properly incorporate and cite the works of others. They also learn how to write in an expository manner that is appropriate for explaining what they have learned. Students presentation skills are further compounded by opportunities to present their research.

Chalk Talk: Advanced Math Courses
Calculus and statistics are two of the most common math courses taken by high school students who are at a more advanced level. These two courses are almost always offered at colleges and universities as well. Although calculus is not a required high school course, students taking advanced math classes typically take calculus by their senior year. Calculus is the study of change and has two major branches: differential calculus--the rates at which quantities change--and integral calculus--the focused on the accumulation of quantities. Students generally first take pre-calculus, which is a combination of college-level algebra and trigonometry, before tackling calculus. Statistics has everything to do with data--its collection, analysis, interpretation, and organization. This is an elective course in high school. Statistics are around us everywhere, so this is a very relevant course.
