The North Carolina Standard Course of Study
North Carolina teaches to the Standard Course of Study (NCSCoS), which defines the content standards for each grade level and high-school course statewide. Student progress is measured by the EOG tests in grades 3-8 and the EOC tests in key high-school courses.
How the NCSCoS Is Organized
The Standard Course of Study sets grade-by-grade and course-by-course standards across Mathematics, English Language Arts, Science, Social Studies, and more. North Carolina also publishes unpacking documents that break each standard into what students should know and be able to do — exactly the detail a strong lesson needs.
