Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Weirton District Curriculum
Elementary schools in Hancock County have adopted the Common Core Standards. They integrate technology to prepare students for success in the 21st century. Students are taught how to be self-directed, lifelong learners and given the skills to seek out and evaluate information. These core principles at a young age prepare students for the more focused and advanced courses.
Hancock County School District offers students a variety of choices. In the high school realm, students may choose from one of six career clusters, or majors: Business and Marketing, Fine Arts/Humanities, Human Services, Engineering/Technical, Health, or Science/Natural Resource. These all require that students follow the core curriculum but are enhanced with courses that will prepare students for these fields. Furthermore, students may choose between professional, skilled, and entry pathways. These options ensure that all students will find the right fit in their academic program that will tie into future college and career goals.

Chalk Talk: The Importance of Student Voice
Student voice makes learning more engaging and therefore more successful. When students feel that their opinions and values are honored in the school and classroom, they are more excited to learn. Student Voice gives local students a chance to make suggestions about how the schools could be improved, and the types of programs that would be of interest. Just as people enjoy spending time with people who seem interested in them, so too do students enjoy schools that are interested in them. This may seem an elementary concept, but it is not always recognized. Student voice is especially important in the adolescent years. Hancock County Public Schools addresses student voice through West Virginia's Student Voice website and other means.
