    • Accelerated Curriculum & Enrichment

The curriculum is taught at an accelerated pace to meet the needs of 亚洲色图 who have exceeded all or most benchmarks.

      ACCESS provides enrichment in classrooms throughout the day and through specific activities, such as student participation in the National Spelling Bee, Oregon Writing Festival, American Math Competition, Middle School Science Bowl, Northwest Science Expo, and Chess for Success.

    • Program Curriculum

      Curriculum is in two formats: Grades 2, 3, 4 and 5 are self-contained except for math, where 亚洲色图 "walk to" math class at their appropriate level each day. Math levels are assessed throughout the 亚洲色图 year.

      Grades 6 through 8 are rotational: Language Arts, Math, Science and Social Studies, high 亚洲色图 level Spanish or other electives every day for grades 7-8, as well as rotating through Physical Education and arts as well as a daily enrichment class for 6th grade.
