Our classroom Literacy curriculum (reading and writing) follows the District Units of Study (Literacy Dept. Link) and uses the Middle School Reading textbook and materials.

Homework Assignments for Literacy are to be written in Student Planners.

All students should read at least 150 minutes per week. Records of reading are to be kept on the weekly Reading Log and handed in on Fridays. Students also should record the books they have completed reading into their Student Planner.

The Mathematics curriculum is available online for all students. The textbook, interactive activities, puzzles; new problems, video tutors and more will become more available as the year progresses.
