Curriculum and Instruction

People First. Always Growing. Better Together.

At Springboro Schools, curriculum and instruction are anchored in high expectations and a rigorous curriculum that challenge every learner to reach their full potential.

Driven by a deep commitment to meet each student where they are, our educators provide targeted support, focused enrichment and personalized pathways to ensure no learner is left behind.

To uphold the highest academic standards, all instructional curriculum and targeted interventions fully meet the requirements of, and are approved by, the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce.

The ultimate goal is to cultivate a consistent experience for all Panthers, equipping every student with the critical thinking, adaptability, and knowledge base necessary to thrive on the path they choose past graduation.

How do I view my child's i-Ready and OST test scores? 
You can view all of your child’s test scores in Abre.

What score is needed for my child to be promoted to fourth grade? 

The promotion score can be any of the following: 

  • Third Grade ELA OST = 700 or above

  • Reading Promotion Subscore = 50 or above

  • i-Ready Score = TBD

When will I know if my child will be promoted to 4th grade? 

Students in third grade have four opportunities to reach a promotion score. These include the fall and spring ELA OST assessments and the winter and spring i-Ready reading scores. Parents of students who are at-risk for retention will receive communication in February and May from the child’s teacher. 

Can I request that my child be promoted? 

Yes, a student’s parent or guardian, in consultation with the teacher and principal, can request the student be promoted to grade four regardless of the student’s score on the OST or i-Ready assessment. This process will happen in late spring after all assessments are completed.

Reading Improvement and Monitoring Plan (RIMP) 

Students who have a RIMP in third grade and do not reach a 700 on the OST will continue to have a RIMP and receive intervention in reading, through grade 12 or until they achieve a score of 700 or above on the ELA OST.
