Students in Grades 1 through 4 are assigned to a Core class. Core time is the majority of a student’s day in which all subjects other than math are taught. In this setting, subject areas are meaningfully integrated. The design of integration can include independent, small group, whole classroom, or grade level instructional activities. Core classes are designed to include students of more than one achievement level. Language arts instruction will occur in the core classroom.
Each elementary school is comprised of five grade level teams (Kindergarten through Fourth Grade), a Special Area Team (Art, Music, Physical Education, Library), and a Support Team (Guidance, Reading, Math Support, Learning Support, ESL, Nurse, Speech, and other support personnel.)
