High School Academic Standards

Friday, March 3, 2023

Common Core Standards

The Common Core is a set of nationally recognized academic standards in mathematics and English language arts/literacy. These learning goals outline what a student should know and be able to do at the end of each grade. The standards were created to ensure that all students graduate from high school with the skills and knowledge necessary to succeed in college, career, and life, regardless of where they live.

Additional Learning Standards

In addition to adopting the Common Core State Standards in reading and mathematics, the District of Columbia has adopted challenging learning standards that define the knowledge, concepts and skills that students should acquire at each grade level. Visit the Office of the State Superintendent of Education site to view the standards for:

  • Arts
  • English Language Development
  • Health and Physical Education
  • Science
  • Social Studies
  • Technology
  • World Language
