CURRICULUM GUIDE

About the Iowa K-12 curriculum

Iowa curriculum overview

The Iowa Department of Education sets the Iowa Core Standards, which define what students learn in math, Language Arts, science, and social studies from kindergarten through grade 12.

Standards bodies in Iowa

The Iowa Department of Education governs math, Language Arts, science, and social studies under the Iowa Core Standards. The primary assessment is the ISASP, covering grades 3 through 11.

Grade levels & progression

Iowa groups K-12 into elementary, middle, and high school bands. ISASP assessments are administered in grades 3 through 8 and again in grade 11 for math and Language Arts.

Compared to other states

There is no single national K-12 curriculum in the US. Iowa's Iowa Core Standards were developed independently, giving the state its own grade-by-grade learning expectations across all subjects.
