Core Knowledge
Core Knowledge will be used to teach science, history, geography, music, and visual arts. Core Knowledge's best attributes can be summed up in the three S's: solid, sequential, and specific. Each academic year builds upon information attained during the previous years, avoiding heavy repetition and gaps. By clearly specifying important information in the core areas, teachers, parents, and students will have well defined academic goals for each grade level.
