Our Curriculum
SC1 and SC2 use an adapted curriculum called enCore! There are a total of 36 units, and those units are banded by grade levels. All our classes have multiple grade levels. Due to this, some classes might use two units simultaneously. For example, a class might use a unit for kindergarten through second and a different unit for grades third through fifth. Each unit consist of an adapted fiction book and an adapted nonfiction book. It takes six weeks to complete one full unit with three weeks per book.
SC3 and SC6 are using a new reading program called Wit and Wisdom! This program have four module and each module has a variety of lessons that include writing.

- Birthday parties are not permitted. However, birthday cupcakes are allowed during lunch time.
- If there is a change in transportation arrangements, we require notice from the parent before allowing students to be transported by anyone other than a parent. You may send in a note with your child or email parkstreet@marietta-city.org with the details of the change.
- When a student arrives late (after 8:30), an adult must sign the student in at the office.
- If a child is out for any portion of the school day, the missed time is recorded as a tardy. A note sent in the morning will help us to have your child ready. To avoid interruptions to instruction, no student will be released between 2:45 and 3:15.
