Draft Curriculum Documents

Curriculum Process

Emerson follows a five year cycle during which all curriculum documents are reviewed and updated, with a focus on one or two content areas per year.  The 2020 New Jersey Student Learning Standards (NJSLS) were adopted by the State Board of Education on June 3, 2020 in seven content areas, which means there will be many documents updated to meet compliance for September 2022.  

UPDATES REQUIRED BY SEPTEMBER 2022:
