Dedham Public Schools will be hosting our second annual District Curriculum Night on OCTOBER 24, from 6:30-8:00 at Dedham Middle School! This informative evening is an opportunity for parents and caregivers for students PreK - 12 to learn more about current school curriculum, hear from department leaders and educators on topics including Report Cards, Social Emotional Supports, best practices for supporting students and post-DHS planning.

Families can attend up to three sessions throughout the evening. Every session will be offered at three separate times. Pre-registration is requested, but not required to attend.

• Session A will run from 6:40-7:00
• Session B will run from 7:10-7:30
• Session C will run from 7:40-8:00

Advance registration for sessions is preferred, so we can ensure that all sessions have space. Additionally, we need to plan for childcare coverage if that is something you'd like to take advantage of during the event.

Over 20+ programs will be offered on topics relevant to all levels of student.  Visit the information email sent home to see the full program list and for registration details.

To better align with educational goals and ensure that report cards clearly reflect student learning, the DPS Office of Teaching & Learning is in the process of developing a new standards-based elementary report card that will be ready to launch by the Fall of 2025.

The goal is to provide families with a clearer, more comprehensive view of how students are progressing toward meeting grade-level standards. This will help parents/guardians better understand the skills your student is mastering and where additional support may be needed.

To ensure we create a report card that works for everyone, the process begins with gathering feedback from teachers and families. Your perspectives as parents and caregivers are essential in making sure the new report card is meaningful and useful.
