Curriculum

Welcome to the

Curriculum & Instruction Department

This year at Perkiomen Valley we continue to be dedicated to "Doing School Differently"! What does it mean to engage and empower students? Why should we think about classroom instruction differently? These are the critical questions we are discussing with our staff. Our Curriculum Review and Professional Development are also focused on this area and will be tied to District Goals. We are also continually connecting our practices to the Danielson Framework for Teaching.

Full Day Kindergarten Review Committee

This year, a study will be conducted under the leadership of our Curriculum and Instruction team to investigate the idea of full day kindergarten for all students. A committee will be formed to understand the purpose, need, potential costs, and planning of such an implementation. Committee meetings have focused on the purpose and scope of committee work and research review. The next meeting is scheduled for November 7 @ 6:30 pm. Would you like to participate on this committee? If so, please inform Mrs. Laurie Smith, lsmith@pvsd.org, of your interest. You can also stay informed of the progress of the committee by visiting the "Full Day Kindergarten Review" page linked the right.
