Curriculum
Tuttle’s goal is for every student to reach his or her highest potential to navigate through life as independently as possible. Every student has an individualized plan with goals and objectives to help them reach their highest potential. To facilitate this, Tuttle has adopted Unique Learning Systems, which is an online standards-based curriculum program that provides students with meaningful access to the general education curriculum. This personalized system engages students with invaluable learning time by providing differentiated lessons and materials. It uses evidence-based teaching strategies with data-driven results. Monthly lessons and materials address critical skills in reading, writing, math, science, and social studies. Tuttle staff continuously review and educate themselves on new evidence-based materials that best meet our students’ needs.
