The University City district ensures academic success in each and every student, focusing on differentiating learning styles and tailoring subject assessments to student needs. The curriculum is always evolving and changing to meet the diverse needs of the district, with the effort of the curriculum and professional development teams. Students begin their path of knowledge with basic material, scaffolding up to more complex and more advanced topics.

Educating Our Parents: Understanding the University City District Curriculum

The elementary Math curriculum is structured around the core concepts of addition, subtraction, division, multiplication, decimals and fractions. Basic number pattern recognition is reinforced, and math literacy is encouraged through basic arithmetic understanding. Practice of these concepts, as well as application to real world scenarios, lends relevance to mathematics in everyday life. In middle and high school grades, students are introduced to more advanced topics, such as algebraic functions, geometry, and calculus.

Communication Arts, including English Language Arts, are emphasized from an early age at University City. The curriculum focuses on developing strong reading and writing skills from an early age. From early grades on through middle and high school, students learn to evaluate and analyze a broad range of texts, from fiction to nonfiction and periodicals. Additional elective topics include journalism, mythology and Advanced Placement (AP) courses.

Chalk Talk: Disease Transmission – Breaking the Chain

As a health-conscious society, we are always being told how to take steps to increase and promote our overall health. There are six so-called links to the chain of infection. The first is an infectious agent—any disease-causing microorganism, also known as a pathogen. The second link is the reservoir host—the organism in which infectious microbes live. Third is the portal of exit—for example, sneezing or touching infected surfaces with broken skin. Fourth is a route of transmission—the way in which a pathogen gets from a reservoir host to a new host. Examples include airborne disease, insects, and touch. Fifth is the portal of entry—the way in which a pathogen enters a new host. Finally, if all these links have conspired together, the sixth link is a susceptible host, the organism that accepts the pathogen and perhaps cannot fight it off. Self-protection and appropriate treatment are really important factors when considering your overall health, and breaking the chain of disease transmission.
