Seattle Public School's
Academic Standards
Thank you for
your interest in the Academic Standards, which guide teaching and
learning in the Seattle Public Schools. These statements describe
what students should know and be able to do during and as a result
of their educational experiences. Grade-level benchmarks illustrate
the progression of development from kindergarten through high
school for each standard.
This website
includes the standards and grade-level benchmarks for:
• Health and Fitness
• Reading
• Writing
• Communication
• Math
• Science
• Social
Studies
• Visual Arts
• Dance
• Theatre
• Music
• Technology
as well as
other important documents. Each section begins with the Essential
Academic Learning Requirement (EALR) set by Washington
State.
The Developmental Stages of Reading
and the Developmental Stages of
Writing are previous curriculum documents provided as a
reference. Grade-level benchmarks in reading and writing included
alignment with these developmental stages.
Student
Guides to Standards are also available on the website in English,
Spanish, Vietnamese, Tigrigna, Somali, Chinese, Cambodian, Tagalog,
