Teaching and Learning
Curriculum
Region 15 has a strong commitment to curriculum and instruction. Students in our district receive a rich and diverse academic program. We promote a balanced education that meets students' intellectual, social, and personal needs to help them continue their pursuit of lifelong learning. We strive to prepare our students to be thoughtful, active citizens who can function productively in a multi-cultural, rapidly changing, interdependent world. Teachers take an active part in curriculum development. Our curriculum revision cycle helps to ensure all disciplines are evaluated and revised regularly. Standards-based curriculum, performance-based learning and assessment, and high quality instruction are at the heart of what keeps Region 15 schools strong.
Numerous opportunities for learning
also extend beyond the school day and school walls.
Students participate in trips
to other cities, countries and places that directly connect
to their studies. Local businesses offer high school
students real-world situations to apply their knowledge and
problem-solving skills. These examples of three-dimensional
learning experiences (classroom, text, real-life) stretch
and enrich children and teachers in immeasurable ways.
