Delaware standards alignment

Designed for high school. Below is every Delawarestandard these courses cover: the exact code, the standard's own words, and the lesson that covers it. Where we only cover part of a standard, it says so, and says which part.

Read this before you rely on it

  • We mapped this ourselves. This alignment was done by Learn.WitUS against the published standards. It has not been reviewed, endorsed, or approved by Delaware's education authority or by anyone else.
  • Every code was fetched, then transcribed word for word. Each framework below shows the date its codes and text were retrieved from the publisher.
  • Standards get revised.A code can be renumbered or its wording changed without notice, and some states publish more than one live edition of the same document. Confirm anything you file against your own jurisdiction's current requirements, using the source links below.
  • We would rather claim less. Where the courses only partly cover a standard, this page says partially covered and explains the gap. Standards we considered and could not honestly claim are listed at the bottom, with the reasons.

Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts & Literacy

Grades 11-12 · Common Core State Standards Initiative · retrieved 2026-07-13

Delaware adopted the Common Core State Standards for English language arts in 2010 (as a Race to the Top state) and publishes them today as the Delaware ELA/Literacy Standards — the DDOE standards page carries the CCSS's own “must be complemented by a well-developed, content-rich curriculum” framing. The standard text is the Common Core verbatim. We cite the canonical CCSS codes as published by the CCSS Initiative; we could not obtain Delaware's own ELA PDF to confirm whether it reprints the bare strand codes (RH.11-12.6) rather than the CCSS web-namespace form, so we add no aliases — a cosmetic difference that does not change the standard's identity or text. We claim no mathematics standards.

What we don't claim

A standards page is only worth reading if the omissions are honest too. We looked at these and left them out:

  • Mathematics — nothing. This catalog does no mathematics instruction, so it meets no Delaware (Common Core) mathematics standard.
  • Science — one partial claim, via the shared NGSS file. Delaware was an NGSS lead state and the 7th state to adopt the NGSS verbatim (unanimous State Board vote, September 19, 2013), so our one honest science claim — HS-ESS3-1, partial — comes through the shared NGSS mapping with the limit stated on the entry. There is no laboratory work, investigation, or modelling in this catalog, and we will not claim more.
  • Two Civics 9-12 expectations we checked and rejected. Civics Standard Two 9-12 (“examine and analyze the extra-Constitutional role that political parties play in American politics”) is not taught: Delaware Civics teaches the CONSTITUTIONAL major-party balance rule on Delaware's courts, which is the opposite of an extra-Constitutional party analysis. Civics Standard Four 9-12 (“understand the process of working within a political party, a commission engaged in examining public policy, or a citizen's group”) is likewise not taught — the course teaches running for local office and attending public boards, not working inside a party, commission, or advocacy group. The courses do not genuinely teach these, so we do not claim them.
  • Economics — Macroeconomics is not taught. Economics Standard Two 9-12 (how economies function as a whole — inflation, unemployment, business cycles, and monetary and fiscal policies) is not taught by this catalog. The BVC economics is microeconomic and trade-focused (commodity prices, value chains, trade barriers), so we claim the Microeconomics, Economic Systems, and International Trade expectations and reject Macroeconomics.
  • Geography — Maps (excluded as unverifiable here) and Regions. The Commodity Map itself would map to Geography Standard One (Maps), but that strand's Grades 9-12 expectation is a bulleted, multi-part standard (mapped patterns analyzed through hierarchy, accessibility, diffusion, and complementarity, each with its own parenthetical definition) that we could not reproduce cleanly verbatim in a single entry — verbatim-or-nothing, so we exclude it rather than paraphrase, and note the gap here. Geography Standard Four (Regions) is not genuinely taught. The gap on Maps is in our transcription, not the lessons.
  • History — the Content strand's Delaware connection. History Standard Four 9-12 asks for modern United States and world history “and its connections to Delaware history.” The catalog teaches world and U.S. history at real depth, but not Delaware's own history, which the benchmark centers — so we map the History strand's analytical expectations (Chronology, Analysis, Interpretation) and do not claim the Content strand.
  • The AI-literacy ladder, the language courses, and Learning How to Learn — deferred, not denied. Delaware's closest frameworks (Computer Science, World Languages) have not been fetched and verified yet. Our rule is fetch-or-don't-cite, so these courses carry no Delaware claims this pass.
