The Pennridge School District prides itself on the range and depth of its educational program, its commitment to ongoing curriculum renewal, and its efforts to insure that the instructional program is responsive to the needs and interests of our students. The overall goal of the educational program is expressed in the district's Mission Statement:

The Pennridge School District, in partnership with family and community, will provide all students with numerous and varied opportunities to gain the knowledge and skills necessary to grow into healthy, productive citizens equipped for life-long learning.

• Overall program goals for each subject or discipline

• Objectives for the development of knowledge of concepts and the development of skills

• Instructional strategies and resources designed to support meeting stated goals and objectives

• Assessments to measure student progress toward achieving instructional objectives
