Curriculum

The Elizabethtown Area School District is committed to providing a rigorous, relevant, and engaging curriculum that prepares every student for success in school and beyond. Our curriculum is aligned with the Pennsylvania Academic Standards and is designed to develop the knowledge, skills, and dispositions students need to thrive in college, careers, military service, and life.

Curriculum, instruction, and assessment work together to create meaningful learning experiences from kindergarten through grade 12. Through a vertically aligned curriculum and a commitment to continuous improvement, the District ensures students build a strong academic foundation while developing critical thinking, collaboration, communication, creativity, and problem-solving skills.

To keep instruction current and relevant, the District follows a comprehensive curriculum review process that includes regular evaluation of curriculum alignment, instructional resources, assessment practices, student achievement data, and emerging educational best practices. This collaborative process helps ensure that our academic programs continue to meet the needs of all learners while remaining aligned with the District's Life Ready Model.
