In the Jordan School District, we work to provide the best for "EVERY STUDENT EVERY DAY." This website will provide students, teachers, schools and parents with resources to help all our students be successful. We have videos, ideas, links and other tools to help implement the Utah State Social Studies Curriculum and history skills in the new Utah Core Standards. We have resources to facilitate collaboration in Professional Learning Communities. Teachers and students can access District common assessments from the site to help in gathering good data on student learning. In Jordan School District, it's all about our kids!
