9th Grade Core

THE CORE PROGRAM
All first-year students at CVU are enrolled in the Core Program, which includes the following elements:

  • Performance standards based on CVU's Expectations for Student Learning.
  • Learning activities focused on the achievement of these Expectations at a very high level by all students.
  • Assessments given prior to CVU entry as well as ongoing assessments, which help teachers, guidance counselors, parents, and student work together.

 

The five Essential Core Components are:

  • Interdisciplinary connections
  • Teams of teachers with the same students, heterogeneously grouped
  • Core student numbers under 90
  • Close relationships with students and family
  • Rigorous academic focus
