About School District: Mission Statement - Caldwell-West Caldwell Public School District :2010 PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION/DISTRICT MISSION STATEMENT-To prepare pupils for the world of 2010, the Caldwell-West Caldwell School District, in a collaborative partnership with family, community, and school, will provide the essential resources, opportunities, and experiences that will foster as well as challenge all pupils to achieve their greatest potential as lifetime self-directed learners and responsible, productive citizens.It is the expectation of this school district that all pupils achieve the New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards at all grade levels."The Caldwell-West Caldwell Public School K-12 school district is dedicated to providing its students with a continuum of quality educational experiences directed at producing well-rounded citizens who are independent learners. Each of the district's six schools is currently involved in a five-year plan, begun during the 2004-05 school year, to evaluate, revise, and develop instructional strategies for all curriculum areas. Paramount to this project is the aligning of each specific curriculum, kindergarten through grade 12, with the approved New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards. The Standards describe what all students should know and be able to do upon completion of a thirteen-year public school education. The Standards define the results expected to ensure that all students achieve the expectations. The Caldwell-West Caldwell Schools have utilized the New Jersey Standards as well as National Standards and standards published by recognized professional organizations as resources in answering the following "key questions":Is the current curriculum providing students with essential and timely knowledge, skills, and abilities that we want them to accomplish? Is the current curriculum aligned with the most recent New Jersey State Core Content Curriculum Standards? Is the current curriculum aligned with the most recent New Jersey State Core Content Curriculum Standards? Is the current curriculum meeting the needs of diverse and differentiated learners? The much anticipated "VISION 2010" initiative was launched in 2001, with a representative Steering Committee of district parents, teachers, administrators, Board members, and community residents developing the future direction of our schools for the next generation of Caldwell-West Caldwell students. The district continues to make investments in new technology that are continually implemented. During the school year, intensive staff development workshops are preparing teachers for the challenges of the new and expanded technology program. A continuing strength of the Caldwell-West Caldwell School District is the continuity of instruction that enables James Caldwell High School to build upon the strong foundation developed at the elementary and middle schools. This constancy of purpose has allowed the district to consistently graduate students fully prepared for the next step in their adult lives.he "Vision 2010" initiative will be reviewed throughout the 2010 school year to evaluate its success and determine the future direction of the school district.
