The focus of the curriculum is on critical thinking skills, analytical writing and effective communication skills, science literacy and problem solving skills, and mathematics. Students read complex texts in a variety of classes for comprehension and author intent. They write thoughtfully about their reading, using evidence they’ve gathered from the text to support their claims. In mathematics classes, students focus on a greater depth of learning, so that they understand how mathematical concepts work.
