Elementary Curriculum...
Core
Knowledge The Core Knowledge sequence
is the result of research into the content and structure of the highest performing elementary school systems around the world,
as well as extensive consensus-building among diverse groups and interests, including parents, teacher, scientists, professional
curriculum organizations, and experts from the Core Knowledge Foundation's advisory board on multicultural traditions.
Provisional versions of the Sequence were reviewed and revised by panels of teachers, and in 1990 a national conference was
convened at which twenty-four working groups hammered out a draft sequence. This draft was fine-tuned during a year
of implementation at Three Oaks Elementary in Fort Myers, Florida. The Sequence was revised in 1995 to reflect the experience
of Core Knowledge teachers and subsequently content outlines for preschool, kindergarten, and grades 7 and 8 were prepared
in the same way.

Title I Information Title I-A is
intended to help ensure that all children have the opportunity to obtain a high-quality education and reach proficiency on
challenging state academic standards and assessments. Title I-A targets these resources to the districts
and schools where the needs are greatest. Title I-A provides flexible funding that may be used to provide additional instructional
staff, professional development, extended-time programs, and other strategies for raising student achievement in high-poverty
schools. The program focuses on promoting school wide reform in high-poverty schools and ensuring students' access to
scientifically based instructional strategies and challenging academic content. Title I-A provisions provide
a mechanism for holding states, school districts, and schools accountable for improving the academic achievement of all students
and turning around low-performing schools, while providing alternatives to students in such schools to enable those students
to receive a high-quality education.

What is the Title I Program? Dear Parents,
Meadows Valley School participates
in the federal Title I-A program, which is intended to help ensure that all children have the opportunity to obtain a high-quality
education and reach proficiency on challenging state academic standards and assessments. Our program is organized around a
partnership between the Title I teacher and paraprofessional, and the students’ classroom teachers, each of whom is
highly qualified. Title I provides flexible funding that may be used to provide additional instructional staff, professional
development, extended-time programs, and
other strategies for raising student achievement in lower-income schools.
The program focuses on promoting school-wide reform and ensuring students' access to scientifically
based instructional strategies and challenging academic content. Based on teacher recommendations from performance data and
observation, as well as parental consent, students are accepted into the program and receive extra group or individual tutoring
in basic subjects where they need additional help and practice. If you have any questions about the Title I program, contact
Mrs. Maroe at 347-2411.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Lori Maroe
