Common Core State Standards – what are they?
The Common Core State Standards (CCSS) define the knowledge and skills
students should have within their K–12 education careers so that they
will graduate high school able to succeed in entry-level,
credit-bearing, academic college courses and in workforce training
programs.
CCSS have been developed in mathematics and language arts for grades K–12, and they have been adopted by 45 states so far.
Learn about the Common Core State Standards in UA.
Academic Calendar for 2012–2013 amended
At its regular February 13th meeting, the Board of Education amended the academic calendar for 2012–2013 because the previous edition had an extra day of school. The Board revised the calendar by lopping off a day at the end. Hence, the last day for students next school year is Tuesday, June 4, 2013; the last day for faculty is Wednesday, June 5.
Please note that spring break begins during the last week of March and continues into the first week of April; this is a week later than what has been customary.
What do we mean by 21st Century Learning?
Twenty-first century learning refers to the skills, knowledge, and literacies students should master to succeed in work and life in the 21st century. Upper Arlington has made it a top strategic priority to infuse 21st century skills into all schools in order to prepare learners for international competitiveness as students, workers, and citizens.
