Curriculum
The Bay Village City School District is committed to delivering a high quality curriculum and instructional program to our students. All students have access to effective teachers and to the same content, knowledge, and skills to experience success in school. Our commitment is that not only are all students given the accessibility to the curriculum and to ensure teachers also are given enough time to teach to mastery.
In accordance with board policy 2510, we formally review each subject or content area in our school district every five years. This process is important to ensure our curriculum reflects current research, drives best instructional practice, and meets the needs of our students and teachers.
Curriculum revision involves examining and updating what we teach, how students demonstrate mastery, making certain state and national standards are completely integrated, and a consistent content flow occurs from grade level to grade level.
During the curriculum revision process, instructional materials are discussed and approved as needed. In addition, an important component of the curriculum revision process is to determine how technology can be integrated into the curriculum to enhance student learning and engagement.
A typical curriculum review will take at least a full school year; upon conclusion of this process, the Board of Education is asked to approve any revisions to our curriculum. Feel free to contact me should you have questions regarding our curriculum.

Learning Standards
The Bay Village Schools K-12 curriculum is aligned to Ohio’s Learning Standards. These standards explain the knowledge and skills Ohio students in pre-kindergarten through grade 12 need to achieve. Ohio’s Learning Standards emphasize skills crucial to students’ success not only in school but also in college, careers and life — such as critical thinking and problem solving.
Based on Ohio's Learning Standards, Bay Village Schools has made thoughtful and intentional decisions to focus on particular content identified in classes, allowing teachers to realistically teach for mastery in the time allotted.
