Curriculum and Instruction

 

Welcome to the Montrose Area School District Curriculum Page. The goal of this page is to afford parents, families, and community members an opportunity to explore the curriculum framework that will guide students throughout their years in the Montrose Area School District. The Curriculum Framework is an organized plan that defines clear standards which will be achieved by all students. It is the map that reflects what students should know and what students should be able to do.

The Montrose Area School District is committed to assuring that our students have access to the highest quality resources and educational opportunities which will prepare them to be career and college ready. It is through this curriculum framework that we will accomplish this task.

Developing a quality curriculum is a process that requires reflection and changes on a constant basis. During our Curriculum Action Team cycles, departments will work hard to evaluate our current programs and make changes that will enhance student learning experiences. Therefore, at times, some of the content on the Atlas site will be “under construction” and may not be up to date. We will do our best to work in a timely manner to keep the information as current as possible.

Parents can schedule a time to look at “non-curricular” material such as classroom selected read aloud titles, libraries, etc. by coordinating this with the homeroom teacher.
