Palm Beach County Teachers follow both the District Guidelines and National Common Core Standards along with Florida Sunshine State Standards and Benchmarks.

All teachers at Plumosa meet regularly with their team to plan together and discuss progression of students. In these meetings we unpack standards, discuss data from assessments, plan and prepare for upcoming units and arts integration activities, and search for new and different ways to enhance our teaching strategies and student achievement.  On display in each classroom are daily class goals for learning.   They are written as “I Can” statements that allow students to have a goal for today’s learning and take ownership of their own learning.

It is STRONGLY suggested that you check here once a week to see what your child is learning in school. You can then take the opportunity to further your child’s understanding of the content by referencing to it during the night, weekend, in the car, at the grocery store, in restaurants, etc. If you need any creative strategies to tie our curriculum into your home life please ask your child’s teacher for some ideas.

       ARTS

The Arts

Being that we are a School of the Arts we find new and creative ways to integrate the arts into our curriculum. We create, sing, dance, observe and perform throughout our day. Students also have 45 minutes of Fine Arts everyday          where they rotate Music, Dance, Art, P.E., Band, Piano, Media Center, Guidance, and Drama.
