Curriculum

1Principal Revere discussed the proposed curriculum for the 2023-2024. (See attached powerpoint). One point to note is that IReady will no longer be used.  It will be replaced with NWEA Map. This tool will better access the student progress. 

 

How are we aligning with FCS transition in mathematics? We will have mathematics transition team lead by Mr. Adebisi to support the new mathematics standards.

 

Are we using the textbooks FCS recommended? Textbooks were not purchased, but we will align with what FCS recommends for curriculum. We also have SAAVAS textbooks available for middle grades for those that need books.
