Curriculum

Curriculum is the day-to-day outline of strategies that teachers use to help students learn. Curriculum involves textbooks, homework assignments, classroom activities and assessments – the “how” of teaching. In Missouri, school districts design or select their own curriculum based on local needs. Teachers adjust the curriculum to help students reach and go beyond the standards for learning.

As an accredited school in the state of Missouri, Al-Salam Day School offers a comprehensive curriculum designed to align with the standards set forth by the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education, as well as the Common Core, which has been adopted by forty-three states and the District of Columbia.
