In the dynamic landscape of education, schools that stand out for their commitment to excellence in implementing Core Knowledge are truly inspiring. We are proud to shine a spotlight on the Schools of Distinction recognized by the Core Knowledge Foundation, where Core Knowledge is not just a curriculum but a philosophy that shapes the entire educational experience.
These exemplary schools have set a high bar by demonstrating effective implementation of the Core Knowledge approach, showcasing strong instructional practices, fostering collaboration among stakeholders, and constantly striving for improvement. They have become shining examples of what is achievable through knowledge-based learning.
These schools have worked tirelessly to hone their implementation and delivery of Core Knowledge and create school culture dedicated to the idea that content knowledge is essential to increasing student outcomes and developing well-educated citizens. These schools represent diverse student populations, locations, and school models. They vary in how they approach Core Knowledge, but one thing is the same: they know that building knowledge is essential to students reaching their potential.
If your school has successed in embracing the Core Knowledge approach and is dedicated to continuous improvement, why not aim for the prestigious title of a Core Knowledge School of Distinction? By applying, your school can commit to a more rigorous implementation process, designed to meet specific milestones set by the Foundation.
Schools of Distinction are also eligible for exclusive perks, including discounts on materials and professional learning. The Foundation recognizes this achievement at national events, including our conferences, on our website, and in social media campaigns.
