CCHS STEM is thrilled to extend a summer camp opportunity to ALL students in grades 9-12.  Some of our most enthusiastic teachers have teamed up to create a summer camp like no other.  Students will have two weeks of hands-on, minds-on learning experience that revolves around Science, Technology, Design, Photography, and Mathematics.  This camp is meant to enhance student's creativity while teaching them real world skills. Dates of the camp are July 15th -18th and July 22nd  – July 25th .  If you have any questions please check out the STEM link on the webpage of Central Cabarrus High School or contact Justin Pierce at justin.pierce@cabarrus.k12.nc.us .

The NC Department of Public Instruction is introducting a new measure of student learning called the Common Exam. Cabarrus County Schools will be implementing the common Exams during the final weeks of the 2012-2013 school year.

The Common Exams were developed by NC teachers and are based on the Common Core and Essential Standards which define what is taught in different classes and courses. The exams will follow a format similar to the new End of Grade and End of Course assessments. Students will be asked to answer both multiple choice and short answer questions prompting them to use higher-level thinking skills. Cabarrus County students will be taking the Common Exams in May and June using paper and pencil administrations.

 

At the high school level, Common Exams will be given for the following subjects:

-English Language Arts I, III, and IV

-OCS English Language Arts I, III, and IV

-AlgebraII/Integrated Math III

-Geometry

-Pre-Calculus

-Advanced Functions and Modeling

-OCS Intro Math

-OCS Financial Mgmt.

-Physical Science
