Learn about the curriculum at the ELC
Ohio provides learning standards for elementary students to explain the knowledge and skills Ohio students are expected to have.
Please find specific information about the curriculum at the ELC by visiting this page.
In New Albany’s elementary schools, our classroom teachers address the state’s learning standards for English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies.
Our team of specialists address standards in Art, Music, Physical Education, and Technology. Instrumental music becomes a course option in sixth grade.
Our classroom teachers, in partnership with volunteers from organizations such as Junior Achievement, address the Financial Literacy standards.
The Ohio standards for Drama, Dance, and World Languages are not part of our core elementary curriculum, but may be addressed as part of special enrichment programming. These standards and much more are included on our Elementary Curriculum page.
