Belvidere Community Unit School District #100 offers a comprehensive curriculum with high expectations for all students.  The goal of the curriculum is to provide a meaningful, challenging, and successful learning experience for all students.  Teams of District teachers created subject area curriculum maps as a way to align District curriculum to the Illinois Learning Standards.

Each map reflects when the concept or content is introduced, at what level it is mastered, and if it is reinforced.  By focusing on the essential part of the curriculum, the teachers aligned the core of their curriculum to the Illinois Learning Standards.  These standards are the basis for the state testing for ISAT, PSAE, ACCESS and other such assessments.

The curriculum maps represent the core of what each student will master prior to graduation.  At the high school level, the maps are designed to reflect 80% of the curriculum taught.  In addition, for grade 9, the biology, world studies, English 9, and algebra maps reflect the core curriculum for the HOUSE.

The list of curriculum maps will be updated as new courses are developed.
