The Core Knowledge curriculum was developed by Dr. E.D. Hirsch. It is a solid, specific body of knowledge shared across all content areas and sequenced by grade levels. Students enrolled at Wilshire will read great works, written at grade appropriate reading levels, such as: Robin Hood, Peter Pan, The Illiad, and A Mid-Summer Night's Dream to name a few. Language arts, history, science, geography and the fine arts are intertwined to give students a broad based knowledge that allows them to leave Wilshire well prepared for even the most rigorous secondary curriculums.
