    Curriculum Standards

    Student performance is measured by the establishment of rigorous academic standards adopted from the North Dakota state-driven, voluntary college and career readiness academic content standards in all core subject matters. The BPS teachers working collaboratively in their departments have defined "I can ... statements" and proficiency scales for these standards.

    The Career Ready Practices component of the CTE provides a framework for the developmental experiences necessary to becoming career ready; experiences that can be “practiced” using many different approaches in a variety of settings. Student refine these practices throughout their full continuum of learning: through their journey in school, college, the workforce and when they return to advance their education.

    The North Dakota Department of Career and Technical Education also have content standards that assist in preparing students for entry into industry sectors and for post secondary education. The Bismarck Career and Technical Education teachers are developing proficiency scales for these standards to ensure that each program area offers courses that allow students to acquire essential knowledge and skills to be successful.

    Standards-Based Education Parent Information 

    Developing a standards-based curriculum and shifting toward standards-reflected grades requires changes in the way teachers teach and in the way schools view education. The shift to standards-based education is perhaps one of the most comprehensive and complex endeavors the public educational system has experienced in over 100 years.

    Because change is challenging and because the education field requires constant reflection and revision, the documents and practices that exist today could very well change throughout the years. Please be assured that any changes are based on reflection, research, and effective practices, leading to a greater understanding of how students learn, and are always made with the best interests of students in mind.
