Learning
Cardinal McCloskey Community Charter School’s kindergarten, first, and second grade students are exposed to instructional practices that support the development and early learning with a framework aligned to the Sanctuary Model of trauma-informed learning to maintain a nonviolent, democratic, productive school community and a curriculum aligned to the Next Generation Learning Standards.
Students in grades 3-5 participate in a well balanced educational program. Cardinal McCloskey Community Charter School takes a methodical approach to instruction in every subject area in order to provide frequent and significant opportunities for growth. Evidence-based structures such as interactive read-alouds, strategy, guided groups, and accountable independent reading are used across the curriculum.
