Palos Verdes Estates District and Curriculum
The curriculum used in the schools of Palos Verdes Estates provides the guidelines for precisely what students must learn in their classes as well as the broader conceptual knowledge which students will gain. The curriculum is designed so that students deepen their abilities in the core academic subjects each year, using prior knowledge as a basis to gain more knowledge. This promotes the use of reflective thinking which aids in the development of other critical thinking skills.
In Language Arts, students are taught skills for decoding and analyzing texts, about the structure of language, and how to craft written expression. Students have opportunities for speaking and listening in discussions generated by literature and non-fiction texts. This basis in communication and literacy skills supports learning across all subjects.
We currently cover the following Palos Verdes Estates-area school district: Palos Verdes Peninsula Unified School District.

The curriculum for Math lays out the plan by which students are introduced to the topics of number sense, measurement and data analysis, algebraic operations and moves toward advanced classes in pre-calculus, trigonometry, and advanced statistics. In Science, a similar framework is laid out whereby students are introduced to the major topics of Biology and Life Science, Earth Science, Chemistry, and Physics through inquiry and lab-based experiences.
An important aspect of the curriculum is technology. It is used in all areas of learning from basic classroom and word processing uses, to courses in graphic design and computer science. These opportunities in combination with the range of thought processes such as analysis, problem-solving, and inquiry-guided thought developed, students have the tools to succeed.
