Curriculum

As a school, we follow the Georgia Performance Standards in both Reading and Math and students are evaluated annually. Reading and Math are taught based on each individual student’s developmental and academic level. Science, US History, and Geography are all taught in a 3-year cycle. All students will focus on the same topics in these subjects. Students will also have time to explore individual areas of interest.
