Curriculum & Instruction
Dunbar Elementary School works hard to surpass the academic guidelines established by the California Department of Education by providing a challenging and engaging curriculum for our students.
Dunbar Curriculum
Dunbar School follows
California State and Sonoma Valley Unified School District guidelines.
The school district has adopted content standards in Reading,
Writing, and Mathematics. We have Multiple Measures assessments
in both Language Arts and Mathematics. These assessments will
allow teachers, students and parents to see where individuals
are in reaching and/or exceeding District Standards. The measures
will determine whether the student has successfully learned grade
level standards. The results of these measures will enable our
teachers to teach to your child's individual needs and strengths.
Copies of the State content Standards will be discussed and distributed
at Back to School Night.
