Reading and Writing Curriculum

The English and writing curriculum are written in-house and approved by the Curriculum Director at the district level. The courses combine English and writing standards and skills beginning with elementary level skills vertically articulated through college-level standards. The English Language Arts standards require students to utilize higher-order thinking skills and address the needs of the US economy, which requires high school graduates to be college and career ready. Indiana Academic Standards are internationally benchmarked and were designed through backward mapping from 21st century college and career readiness benchmarks, creating a seamless vertical articulation of content and skill requirements.
