St. Joseph the Carpenter School adheres to the elementary curriculum standards developed by the Archdiocese of Newark. While relevant educational standards, including those proposed by content area experts and the New Jersey Student Learning Standards, are used as a resource in developing the curriculum, it is the expertise and experience of the educators within our schools that determines the content and skills students are expected to master. Curriculum maps for mathematics, language arts, and technology can be found on the Archdiocese of Newark website.
