The Pocatello/Chubbuck School District defines curriculum as what students should know and be able to do at the end of the school year. The Curriculum Department and teachers throughout the district have worked to design the curriculum in all subject areas. We believe students, parents, and teachers have a clear understanding of the skills students are expected to master at each grade level.
The school district’s curriculum is aligned with state standards and state testing. The Pocatello/Chubbuck School District is committed to making sure all of its students are prepared at graduation time for postsecondary education or the world of work.
Schools have always used tests to measure student knowledge and progress. To assist teachers and inform parents and the public, the state and Pocatello/Chubbuck School District have instituted a comprehensive testing program.
Students in K-3 take the Idaho Reading Indicator (IRI) three times a year.
Students in grades 3-10 take the Idaho Standards Achievement Test (ISAT) in Language, Math, and Reading at least once a year. Students in grades 5, 7, & 10 take the ISAT Science once a year.
Students in grades 7-12 take End of Course Assessments in the core content subjects each trimester.
