“Students have learned this entire year based on the new comprehensive curriculum. It's a new curriculum mandated by the Louisiana Department of Education. We teach all of our classes based on this new curriculum. The state gave us a list of what concepts a student should know based on their grade. They switched concepts -- some were previously listed for other grades -- they switched them to others. Also this new curriculum adds more hands-on activity.”
“One of the most important things we can do for the students is get them back into their routine. Working the remainder of this week and the first two days of next week will give us the time we need to get everything in order and allow them to return to class.”
