Summer curriculum work is underway at OECC! Teachers, paraprofessionals and coaches from across the district are working together to make sure resources are ready to go for SY 24-25. Can't wait to see their final products! Great things happening in Orange Public Schools.🍊🧡
Effective teaching means individualized learning for all. Using Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP) and Individualized Education Program (IEP) goals, we create inclusive environments where every child can access, participate, and succeed.

In Room #21, students worked with a classroom grown-up to use solution cards to solve a problem. When adults intentionally model and scaffold children through effective problem-solving strategies, children learn that conflicts can be resolved. #GoodtoGreat
In honor of the American Heart Association’s “Wear Red Day”. Students wore red to school to show their school spirit, they also learned about keeping their heart healthy by eating healthy foods, exercising and more! Check out Room #13’s class photo! #GoodtoGreat

Children love to find patterns in the world around them. Patterns help children understand change and that things happen over time. Patterns are things that repeat in a logical way, like vertical stripes on a sweater. Can you and your child find patterns together? #GoodtoGreat
Students in Room #20 worked to extend, copy and create their own patterns. Patterns are all around us! Even nursery rhymes and lullabies are full of repetition and rhymes that help children develop memory recall and make predictions. #GoodtoGreat#OneOrange
