  11. Anchor Standards are overarching PreK - 12 statements expressing the process components as expected outcomes; they identify Grade 12 expectations for learning.

  12. Enduring Understandings and Essential Questions focus on what are often called “big ideas.” Essential Questions (EQs) encourage a pedagogy of inquiry.

  13. The standards are grade by grade Prek-8 and include three levels in high school: Proficient Accomplished Advanced

  14. Proficient A level of achievement  attainable by most students who complete a high-school level course in the arts (or equivalent) beyond the foundation of quality PreK-8 instruction.

  15. Accomplished A level of achievement attainable by most students who complete a rigorous sequence of high-school level courses (or equivalent) beyond the Proficient level.

  16. Advanced A level and scope of achievement that significantly exceeds the Accomplished Level. Achievement at this level is indisputably rigorous and substantially expands students’ knowledge, skills, and understandings beyond the expectations articulated for Accomplished achievement.
