Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Swanton District Curriculum
MVU has 12 school-wide expectations. The first four concern core subjects such as math, science, reading, and writing. Students should be fluent in mathematical concepts and be able to use them to solve problems. They should be able to read increasingly complex texts as they advance through the grade levels and express themselves in writing for a diverse array of purposes and audiences. They should know which technology is relevant to different tasks and be able to use it effectively to access and communicate information.
Expectations five through eight address life skills, such as being able to research, solve problems, inquire and experiment to generate evidence, and think critically. Collaboration is the theme of expectations nine through twelve. Students should be able to set goals, and work effectively independently or in collaboration with others to accomplish these goals. They should be open-minded, appreciate diversity and be able to take responsibility for their actions.

Chalk Talk: Guest Teachers
Individuals who come in to lead a class when the regular teacher is not present are sometimes called substitute or guest teachers. How can you make a success of a day when you have one of these visitors? First, you should realize that this adult may have different rules or expectations for the class than your teacher has. You should view this as an opportunity to show reasonableness and character by abiding by these temporary standards. Often, there is an assignment or activity to complete. Work diligently to finish your assignment during the class period. Your teacher will be proud to return to a report that his or her class was cooperative and polite. Cooperating with guest teachers reflects positively on your teacher and on your school.
