| A Message to Parents:
The Monadnock Regional
School District is committed to high academic standards for all
students. This information is one of many ways that we will use
to communicate with parents this year about our expectations for
students. The outline of topics is representative of the learning
planned for students at this grade level. By sharing this information
with you, we hope that you will be better able to support your child's
learning about these topics because you will know that they are
planned as part of the year's program. The items listed are those
taught by all teachers at this grade level. Your child's classroom
teacher can give you much more detail about how and when these topics
and others are planned.
Since the development
and refinement of the curriculum are ongoing processes, the District
continues to work on the curriculum and its alignment with the State
frameworks. Parents of students in grades 4, 7, and 11 receive annually
a report from the Commissioner of Education in October describing
their children's individual results from the spring assessments.
Parents of students in all grades are encouraged to ask teachers
about their child's progress in meeting the standards on which the
State test is based. Communication between parents and teachers
is very important in order to serve your child successfully. Please
do not hesitate to talk with your child's teacher if you have any
questions, concerns, or suggestions.
The District welcomes
your comments and suggestions about this information and its contents.
We wish you and your child a positive and productive school year.
Dr. David G. Hodgdon
Director of Curriculum and Instruction
