Priority standards are the most essential learning objectives that students need to understand and be able to demonstrate mastery of by the end of the school year. These standards represent the key knowledge and skills that are critical for students' success in their current grade level and beyond. By focusing on priority standards, teachers can ensure that students are equipped with the foundational knowledge and abilities necessary for their academic growth and future success.
