2220 - ADOPTION OF COURSES OF STUDY
The Board of Education shall provide a comprehensive career education program to serve the needs of the students of this District. The Board shall periodically adopt courses of study that define the key components of the District's curriculum and instruction.
The Superintendent shall recommend to the Board such courses of study as are deemed to be in the best interests of the students. Each course of study shall:
| A. | align with the District's mission, philosophy, educational goals, and strategic plan; | |
| B. | identify learning and performance expectations; | |
| C. | provide a scope and sequence of knowledge and skills to be learned; | |
| D. | prescribe methods for assessment of student progress and the means for intervention; | |
| E. | address the developmental needs of early childhood, middle childhood, and adolescent through young adult students; | |
| F. | be guided by Ohio's State-adopted academic content standards. |
Each course of study is intended to provide a basic framework for instruction and learning. Within this framework, each teacher shall use the course of study in a manner best designed to meet the needs of the students for whom s/he is responsible. Deviation from its content must be approved by the Superintendent.
Since one of the District's goals is to prepare students to enter the world of work, the Board directs that each course of study include as part of its learning accomplishments that students can demonstrate their willingness and ability to be punctual, to be present at the learning site each day unless absent for a legitimate reason, and to complete assignments on time and as directed.
The list shall include a description of each course of study and its date of adoption.
