Core Knowledge
What is a Core Knowledge Education?
A Core Knowledge education is built upon a detailed outline of specific content to be taught in language arts, history, geography, mathematics, science, and the fine arts. As the core of a school's curriculum, it provides a solid, coherent foundation of learning; it is also flexible to meet local needs. This allows all the curriculum expectations of the California Framework to be thoroughly covered at each grade level by Rocklin Academy's teachers. The Core Knowledge curriculum is the result of research into the content and structure of the highest performing elementary school systems around the world.
