Academics
|
| Columbine classroom instructors use traditional
textbooks linked with national standards. These include Harcourt Math, Scotts/Foresman science and social studies,
Chall-Popp phonics, Pathways reading and more. In addition, we follow the curriculum guidelines set by the North
American Division of Seventh-day Adventists. |
|
 |
| Students in grades 3-8 take achievement
tests each fall (Iowa Test of Basic Skills) in order to reference students' progress against national norms. |
 |
|
Each grade level has a set of "Key
Learnings" which is sent out early in the year to give parents an idea of the concepts to be covered during
that school year. |
| As examples, here are printable Key Learnings
from the 2007-08 school year in PDF format (click View -> Rotate View -> Clockwise for better viewing on
