Core Knowledge Sequence
At our academic base is the Core Knowledge sequence, a rich and sequential outline of content in core subject areas that is integrated across kindergarten through eighth grade. As the first independent school in the United States to use this curriculum outline, Crossroads has matured this sequence into a curriculum. Learn more about the Lower School and Middle School Core Knowledge curriculum.
Core Virtues Curriculum
At the heart of our character education program, the Core Virtues curriculum inspires our students through cross-cultural examples from great literature. This engaging literature-based character education curriculum was developed at Crossroads by our founding Head and is now used in public and independent schools across the country.
