ARC Core^® meets the literacy needs of all students in English and Spanish in any learning environment. Through extensive reading, writing, research, and analysis, students develop agency and expertise in a wide variety of disciplines, preparing them to lead in a changing world.

Organized into thematic units, ARC Core provides flexibility for each district to customize its scope and sequence.

ARC Core Kindergarten incorporates all the best practices of thematic inquiry with the best practices of early childhood instruction. Kindergarten students learn grade level (and above) science content as well as specific beginning reading skills as they learn to read, write, and think like researchers.

Our instructional materials, professional development, incentive programs, and digital data-tracking system all serve to support achieving the goal of every student (Spanish- and/or English-speaking) performing on or above grade level.
