  • Social Studies

    The Social Studies Program is based on United States History with an emphasis on colonization, immigration, citizenship, and using maps.

  • Mathematics

    The program provides opportunities for students to value mathematics, to become confident in their ability to do mathematics, and stresses the importance of experiences that relate mathematics to the real world.  The curriculum is based on the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) and is designed to build basic understanding in number, operations, and quantitative reasoning; patterns, relationships, and algebraic thinking; geometry and spatial reasoning; measurement; and probability and statistics.  Problem solving, language and communication, connections within and outside mathematics and formal and informal reasoning underlie all content areas.

  • Language Arts

    The English/Language Arts Program provides balanced instruction in reading and writing.  This program ties phonics, spelling, and language skills to connected texts in reading and writing.  This integrated language arts curriculum connects all aspects of phonics/word study, vocabulary, reading comprehension, grammar, spelling, and writing in a meaningful context.  The scope and sequence provide for instruction that meets the various needs of individual students and is designed to promote acceleration in language arts.
