Pleasant Hills District and Curriculum

Students in the West Jefferson Hills School District are able to prepare effectively not only for subsequent grades, but also for life after high school. In order to accomplish this, the school district provides a solid base and understanding in the Core subjects of English, math and science. Students receive instruction and show their proficiency on tests taken at appropriate ages. These tests are more than just a measure of individual achievement, they also help teachers plan instruction and shows how the district is doing in educating every child.

We currently cover the following Pleasant Hills-area school district: West Jefferson Hills School District.

Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Pleasant Hills District Curriculum

One of the things important to the West Jefferson Hills School District is that all students are cared for and learn, regardless of whether they have special learning needs or not. With this in mind, they provide special education services as well as Gifted programs for students who need an extra challenge. They also provide help and classes for students who do not speak English as their first language.

High school students at WJHSD have four years to work on their diploma and show their school that they are ready to graduate. Students study careers they might be interested in, and once they select one, they are encouraged to pursue it even in high school. The career pursuits range in student interests from technology to the arts, and also provide many opportunities for overlapping interests. Students, in this way, are able to graduate with a good idea of what they will need to do, both academically and personally, to further approach their goals in years to come.

Chalk Talk: How to Excel in Math

Many students struggle in math because it is often presented as a bunch of formulas or processes which must be memorized. Making sense out of these formulas can be difficult and time consuming, so sometimes students are tempted to simply memorize them and move on, never learning the underlying concept which will prove important in upcoming lessons. Excelling in math can be difficult, but there are a few things that you, as a student, can do to make this less of a pipe’s dream and more of a reality. First of all, take the time to understand what you are learning. If you need a proof or explanation, ask for it. If your teacher doesn’t know, find someone who does or Google it. A tutor may be able to help in this aspect as well. Also, while math homework can be boring at times, take the time to do the problems assigned and, if you have time, a few more. Application problems, such as word problems, can also be of great benefit in truly knowing if you understand a concept.
