Should Your Child Be Reading in Kindergarten or First Grade? When Do Students Start Learning Multiplication? 

 

Many parents inquire about "when" their child should be reaching certain educational benchmarks or what the standards are for our school district. The answers to those questions and many more can be found in this document: Guide For Benchmarks (Language Arts/Reading & Mathematics Grades K-5).

 

We encourage you to print a copy of the pages that pertain to your child(ren) and discuss any questions you may have with your teacher(s).
