Standards:
The Hawaii Public Schools have adopted standards that are applied to the entire state and there are no curriculum standards by complex.  The Hawaii Standards System supports standards-based education through curriculum, instruction and assessment components. The Hawaii Standards System supports school level implementation of standards-based education by:

•  Identifying the targets for student learning such as the Vision of the Public School Graduate, General Learner Outcomes, the Hawaii Content and Performance Standards III, and other course standards;

• Providing curricular and behavioral support for students through direct services to students and their families; and

• Developing, acquiring, and assuring access to support for implementation of standards-based education for teachers, school leaders, and other academic staff.

An essential component of the Hawaii Standards System is the Hawaii Content and Performance Standards III (HCPS III) document which contains:

• Essential content and skills in content areas: Career and Technical Education, Fine Arts, Health, Language Arts, Math, Physical Education, Science, Social Studies, and World Languages;

• Standards that describe the educational expectations for ALL students in grades K-5;

• Essential standards that can be met through elective courses chosen by secondary students to fulfill graduation requirements in the five extended core
