Curriculum, Instruction & Professional Learning

Dear Chappaqua Parents and Community Members,

Welcome to our new curriculum and instruction website.  Using the buttons below, you will find pages for English, Math, Social Studies and Science in addition to a variety of other pages.  For each core subject area, we have included standards, pacing guides & other resources.  This site is a work in progress.  We will continue to add content and new pages for world language, the arts, and others as the site evolves.

As a parent myself, I understand and appreciate how important it is to know what our students will be learning and when they will be learning it.  Our ability to communicate a K-8 core district curriculum is the result of a four year focus on the District’s strategic priority of having an aligned and articulated curriculum.

My thanks go out to our staff members who have contributed to writing, revising, and updating curriculum, as well as those that have participated in the selection of new programs such as Phonics First, TCI for Social Studies (K-8), Handwriting Without Tears, and Big Ideas Math.  We will continue to review, revise and select curriculum to ensure that our students have access to the most powerful instructional experiences available.

Finally, on this site you will find a link where viewers can provide feedback and ask questions.  Please feel free to use this link to share your ideas, or ways that we might be able to improve this site, or our curriculum.

Sincerely,

Adam Pease, EdD
Assistant Superintendent for Curriculum, Instruction and Professional Development
