Core Competency Skills

Our new curriculum has changed the way we teach our subjects. Instead of focusing on content we are learning a set of skills that one must have to achieve success in their grade.
The document below is the list of the competency skills from grades 10-12. 
You'll notice that some skills have been repeated, some skills have changed the wording and some skills  are new. This is where we must begin.
