The district’s mission is to inspire students to gain the necessary skills and knowledge to be productive and responsible citizens in a global society. This mission is achieved through challenging academic opportunities that foster a love of lifelong learning in each student. Extracurricular activities provide students a chance to learn and grow outside the classroom. Students involved in athletics, clubs, and organizations learn valuable communication skills and learn to work well with others.

Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Seekonk District Curriculum
Seekonk High School has developed school-wide rubrics used for the academic categories of expository writing, oral presentations, problem solving, reading, and technology. The expository writing rubric contains expectations for thesis and focus, the development of the thesis, organization, word choice, sentence structure, language conventions, and the conclusion of the written work. When giving oral presentations, students are assessed on their knowledge of the subject they are speaking about, organization and coherence, physical gestures, the volume and clarity of their voice, language conventions, use of visual aids, and appearance.
When problem solving, students are expected to identify the problem, analyze the data, select and use proper strategies to solve the problem, come up with an accurate solution, show their complete work in a clear and organized fashion, and interpret and communicate the results. When reading, students are assessed on their ability to correctly identify the facts and main idea of a text, and accurately summarize information.

Chalk Talk: Parent-Teacher Conferences: What to Expect
During parent-teacher conferences, teachers should always ask questions to the parents. This is the best time for them to seek answers from parents in order to provide the best education possible to each child. Teachers may be interested in finding out if something going on in the child’s home life is affecting his/her performance in school or behavior; just be careful not to cross the line and get too personal. It is also important to listen intently to parents while avoiding doing all of the talking or interrupting them. If parents are veering off-topic, teachers should gently try to bring them back. Teachers should avoid using teacher jargon. They should be frank and open with parents and not talk down to them, but they should not use education-specific language that parents might not understand.
