Instructional Programming and Course Overviews

Below is an overview of the instructional programs and curriculum areas offered across the School District of Springfield Township.

Curriculum in Springfield Township is intentionally designed and continuously improved. The district uses a consistent review, reflect, and renew cycle to examine curriculum over time, incorporate recent updates, and respond to student learning needs. Curriculum is not static. Course overviews and content maps are living documents that are reviewed and refined as part of this ongoing process.

Instructional materials and resources may be added, reviewed, or adjusted to best support student learning. These decisions are guided by curriculum review work, instructional goals, and the needs of learners within a course. While district curriculum provides a shared framework, instructional plans are developed at the classroom and building level to ensure instruction is responsive and developmentally appropriate.

Each core course includes an approved primary resource and/or teacher-curated materials that support instruction, assessment, and learning objectives. New instructional resources are reviewed as part of the district’s curriculum review cycle to ensure alignment with standards, district priorities, and best practices.

Families who have questions about course content, instructional materials, or skills being taught are encouraged to begin by contacting their child’s classroom teacher or building principal. Additional information may also be requested through the Office of Teaching and Learning.
