Curriculum: Parent's Right to Know
At T.R. Simmons Elementary School, we are dedicated to delivering a high-quality education that sets our students up for future success. Our curriculum is grounded in the Alabama State Standards, which define the key knowledge and skills necessary for each subject area.

In addition to adhering to state standards, we incorporate The New Art and Science of Teaching methods, a research-driven framework designed to improve instructional practices and boost student engagement. Our aim is to create a balanced, challenging, and innovative learning environment that caters to the diverse needs of all our students.
In alignment with Alabama’s Parents Right to Know Act, T.R. Simmons Elementary is dedicated to providing transparency regarding our curriculum.
