Teachers at Buckeye Trail MS/HS are analyzing the standards now so we can put them into action by the fall of 2014.
Your child will be studying fewer topics within each subject, but drilling deeper into each to gain more understanding.
Your child will be carrying well-understood key concepts from grade to grade to broaden and build on his or her knowledge.
Your child will learn to relate key ideas from math, science, language arts and social studies to real-life situations.
Your child’s teacher will be using more in-depth teaching methods and getting frequent measurements of how your child is doing.
Standards are a first step – a key building block – in helping us to continue providing our young people with a high-quality education that will prepare them for success in college and work. Most importantly, the hard work of our dedicated teaching staff and the continued support of of parents will ensure that our children enjoy the bright future we all want for them.
