Curriculum
All CSUSA curriculum standards are equal to or greater than Sunshine State Standards. A cadre of CSUSA teachers has further aligned the state standards to national standards, so our students experience a rigorous curriculum.
CSUSA school teams, usually made up of the principal and selected staff members, select curriculum resources that best meet the needs of their school population. Typically, curriculum resources are ordered through the Florida Textbook Depository, which allows for a wide range of sources that meet the standards of state adopted materials. At the elementary level, CSUSA schools use resources as diverse as:
At the elementary level, our school uses resources including:
- SRA’s Imagine It! Reading
- Sadlier Oxford Progress in Math
- Houghton Mifflin Science
- Scott Foresman Social Studies
At the middle school level, our programs include:
- Glencoe Literature and Writer’s Choice
- Glencoe Math
- Holt Comprehensive Science
- Glencoe Geography, Civics Today and American Journey
Additionally, schools may choose lab based science programs that lend themselves to hands-on investigations in a laboratory setting.
