Sterling District and Curriculum
The district follows Colorado Academic Standards as their curriculum. The core subjects of math, language arts, science, and social studies are the main focus, with the goal of providing full understanding and preparing students for a career. The knowledge which students gain is tied to real world examples of how the world works and helps students understand how their classroom learning will benefit their future. Beyond the classroom experience, there are different electives and extracurricular activities that students can participate in to connect with their interests.
We currently cover the following Sterling-area school district: RE-1 Valley School District.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Sterling District Curriculum
During the elementary years, students will develop basic literary concepts, basic chemistry, and be introduced to world history from ancient times to modern day. The elementary math program starts to prepare students for middle school and high school math. Students also learn how to work collaboratively and are exposed to character education programming in social development areas.
Starting in kindergarten, literacy is a major focus. Students learn reading through phonics and phonemics, and build their vocabularies. As each grade progresses, students work on perfecting their spelling, handwriting, and writing skills. In all elementary grade levels, the other components of English language arts are also a major focus; students graduating fifth grade will demonstrate proficiency in writing styles and techniques, grammar and mechanics, and speaking skills. In high school, students must complete state standard core literature and composition courses.

Chalk Talk: What to Expect in College Education Programs
Many young people today are choosing to become educators, but before deciding to pursue this route, they should understand that typical undergraduate education programs at universities are much different than most educational settings. They will be spending a great deal of time away from campus. As they progress through the semesters, they will likely be required to log more and more hours at field sites. Teaching candidates will obviously spend the most time in grade levels that match those that they will someday be teaching, but some universities may place, for instance, elementary education majors in high school classrooms and vice versa for a semester early on in students’ college careers to make sure that those are really the grade levels that they would like to teach. Field experiences usually require college students to observe and work with PK-12 students one-on-one or in small groups. Sometimes, the cooperating teacher will have teaching candidates conduct whole-class lessons.
