Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Ocean City District Curriculum
The Language Arts curriculum is based on the Common Core Standards which break down the subject into the major strands of reading, writing, listening and speaking, media viewing, and conducting research. All these topics are taught together so that students are constantly connecting the skills they learn to the development of their broader, and more critical, literacy skills. Reading comprehension, analysis and interpretation are emphasized across fiction and non-fiction genres.
The Social Studies curriculum introduces students to civics, history, geography and as they get older, concepts of culture and society, economics, and governance. Throughout the years, students are asked to complete projects including putting events in chronological order, writing research papers, and reenacting people or events. Learning how to independently research information about societies, people and places is a goal, and helps students hone their interest in history and current events.

Ocean City District Curriculum Used in Our In-Home Tutoring Programs
The school district uses an objectives-based curriculum in all subjects, and incorporates the goals and design of Common Core State Standards into the Math and Language Arts programs. Each subject-area framework details grade level expectations for learning, and students are assessed accordingly through statewide testing. The goal is to ensure that students and teachers are successful in the instructional process. For all students, there are also additional supporting services including special education services, gifted and talented, and for English language learners.
We currently cover the following Ocean City-area school district: Worcester County Board of Education.

SchoolTutoring Academy has played an important role in improving our son’s confidence and attitude towards school. His grades have also improved steadily throughout the school year.

SchoolTutoring Academy has not only improved my son’s standardized test scores but also his high school math and English grades. Test Prep Academy has not only improved my son’s standardized test scores but also his high school math and English grades.
SchoolTutoring Academy Increased My SAT Score By 200 Points
My son’s math marks in high school have always been weak so I found it very beneficial that his ACT tutor worked on solidifying his fundamentals while prepping for the ACT.
SchoolTutoring Academy gave my daughter the confidence she needed to boost her SAT score Thank you!
SchoolTutoring has played an important role in improving our son’s confidence and attitude towards school. His grades have also improved steadily throughout the school year.
My daughter was able to improve her test scores after a few months of tutoring with SchoolTutoring. However, while raising test scores is great, the real payoff is in the self-confidence that she gained.
I just wanted to send a quick note to say thank-you! My son is very impressed with his tutor and looks forward to each session. What’s particularly amazing about this is our son has never really looked forward to math or school for that matter!
We are so happy with the results of your tutoring program and academic support. Homework time was such a stressful evening for the entire evening before we brought your tutors into our home. Thank you for all your help!
Our daughter, a first grader, struggled with basic reading and handwriting. When she began with SchoolTutoring she was almost a year behind her class. Within a year of being enrolled, she is reading above her grade level and has the confidence to match.

Chalk Talk: The Role of Character Education in Schools
Character education has become a part of the broader curriculum at many schools. And, while it doesn't mean trying to teach children to be a certain way, it does have the goal of developing certain habits of success in all children. Character education is also used to forward social issues, such as bullying, and helps the community recognize its values. Children are expected to show respect, understanding, and tolerance with each other, their teachers, and their environment, and this is accomplished through the character education initiatives. As your child is bringing home information on the types of social development and behavioral expectations at school, let your child know if they may be acting opposite that of the given character trait. As with any subject area, the learning can be extended in the home and benefit your child’s development in the long run.
