Above you will find links to Archdiocesan Grade Level Standards for Kindergarten through Grade 8 in Reading, Math and Religion that are aligned with Illinois State Standards. With these standards as the guiding framework, teachers develop their curricular and unit plans to ensure that grade level standards-based instruction are integrated within lessons for student mastery. Throughout the learning process, teachers are in communication with parents through classroom instruction, projects and homework assignments as to which standard(s) are being addressed, for awareness and support to the student at home. Priority standards will be assessed and learning progress monitored via diverse proficiency scales (assessment exams, project rubrics, summative/narrative assessments and iReady diagnostic assessment). Teachers continuously work with students as they track their individual progress, as well as communicate that progress with parents/guardians.
