This document outlines core competencies across four subject areas: language arts, social studies, science, and math. For each subject, curricular competencies are listed along with communication, thinking, and personal and social competencies. The document suggests that competencies provide students with an understanding of tasks and allow parents to understand expectations and share a common language with the school.
