The Hillsboro Story - Education & Outreach

Portland Public Schools

Two high-school teachers at Portland Public Schools developed a 5-week curriculum based on the script of The Hillsboro Story for 11th grade language arts students.

This curriculum is one of several developed over the past summer and has been added to a list of curricula teachers can access. It is not required curriculum, but it is one of several choices for teachers to choose from and adapt to their needs. It is designed to use with just the script, but can be enhanced by a performance. Matinee school performances are scheduled for this purpose. Roll out of this curriculum took place on August 26.

For more information, contact John Golden, curriculum specialist Portland Public Schools and visit: Portland Public Schools.
