East Williston school district officials are working fervently to produce a more cohesive district standard. They may merge their Advanced Placement computer science class with the science and technology initiative Project Lead the Way for grades nine through twelve. In addition, they are considering making changes to their eighth-grade research program to match the district’s other initiatives.
Schools are beginning to merge math and science at lower levels than previously.
East Williston School District has implemented an engineering geared curriculum.
The revamped Advanced Placement computer science program will give more attention to software engineering than the previous class had. The change would follow Project Lead’s engineering initiative. The district’s math program research may also make similar changes and advancements that would mirror Wheatley’s science research program and its Advanced Placement capstone course.
You just no longer read and write in English [classes] anymore,” he said. “… It’s part of science, it’s part of social studies, it’s part of math.

Is your child struggling in school?
Get your free personalized learning roadmap
You describe what you see at home. We turn it into a plan you start this week.
- Answer 5 short questionnaires about what you already notice, 30–45 minutes at your own kitchen table
- Your child sits no test and gets no score: nothing to schedule, nothing for them to dread
- You do the answering, the AI does the writing, and a person reviews it before it reaches you
- Access all 40+ courses instantly: reading, math, focus, processing and more, with new ones added regularly
Why we use AI, plainly: it writes from a knowledge base our team maintains and audits. We work through it line by line and pull anything the evidence stops supporting. The roadmap you get on Tuesday reflects what we corrected on Monday, and a human still reads it before you do.
Your school district must evaluate your child free of charge if you ask in writing, whatever your income and whatever the outcome (US, 34 CFR 300.111 and 300.301(b)). That route takes time and answers a different question than you do. This one starts today, from what you already know.
Your answers stay yours. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not hand identifiable assessment data to outside AI companies to train their models.
A screener is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If your child might need formal accommodations (an IEP or 504 plan), or you suspect a vision, hearing or medical cause, pursue a professional evaluation too. That is the only route to those supports.
