“As to why. Further, the bar for moving forward within each level is set at a higher standard that other literacy assessments. Finally, the step provides the means to directly and thoughtfully address the ela curriculum to best meet student needs. Last year, our kindergarten students were all at or above grade level in literacy. B)we are one of the few elementary schools that teach both a math problem solving as well as a math procedures block. We believe that students should be able to represent their knowledge in both contexts. For math problem solving, we use singapore math and math investigations. Both focus on how students solve and justify problems using multiple methods. In math procedures, students focus on standards in small groups and learn the specifics behind the steps to solving math problems. As opposed to the problem solving, which requires students to construct meaning before knowing how to more technically solve a problem, math procedures is the more "traditional" math that formally teaches students the logistical steps required to solve "book and paper" problems. This content is heavily based on common core and california state standards. The incredible growth capitol collegiate kindergarteners made last year based on the problem solving and procedures final exam as well as the terra nova demonstrated that every student was at or above grade level. C)capitol collegiate is characterized by academics and culture. We strive to build a strong community within the school and work to actively engage our students in their learning. We believe that the more students are invested in school, the less opportunity there will be for disruption. As a result, we operate with six core values for all members of our school community - humility, effort, respect, optimism, integrity, courage. To be at cca, you are h.e.r.o.i.c. - you display boldness and bravery in your work and accomplishments - and we do this through our core values. This is who we are at capitol collegiate and it is expected that all students and staff will live by these values.
