CUSP Curriculum
At DAPS, we’re excited to introduce our CUSP Curriculum (Curriculum with Unity Schools Partnership) to help your child learn in a meaningful, structured way. This approach focuses on building strong foundations, making connections across subjects, and helping students truly understand and enjoy what they’re learning.
What’s the CUSP Curriculum all about?
The CUSP Curriculum is designed to give children a rich, connected learning experience that balances knowledge, skills, and hands-on practice. Our approach is based on the latest educational research and focuses on learning that sticks, not just memorizing facts.
Here’s what makes the CUSP Curriculum special:
1. Knowledge that Builds Over Time: In subjects like English, Science, and History, we revisit important topics throughout the year. This helps students see the connections between subjects and reinforces what they’ve learned so they really remember it.
2. Skills for Life: We’re not just teaching content; we’re developing important skills like problem-solving, critical thinking, and collaboration. These skills grow as your child progresses through school, helping them become confident, independent learners.
3. Bringing Subjects Together: Learning is more fun and relevant when we connect different topics. With CUSP, students see how subjects fit together and why what they’re learning matters in the real world.
4. Practice Makes Perfect: Regular review and practice are built into the curriculum to strengthen understanding and help kids feel secure in what they know. Repetition and hands-on activities ensure learning really sinks in.
Why is CUSP great for your child?
• Knowledge that Stays: By building on previous learning and revisiting concepts, CUSP helps kids remember and connect their knowledge as they progress.
• Confidence and Independence: Learning through the CUSP Curriculum encourages students to think for themselves and tackle new challenges with confidence.
• A Well-Rounded Approach: While academics are central, we also focus on social and emotional skills, giving students a balanced learning experience.
