Colorado Department of Education. All eight promoted subjects are the Colorado Academic Standards (CAS) as adopted by the State Board of Education: mathematics, reading/writing/communicating, science and comprehensive health from the 2018 adoption (implemented 2020); social studies, visual and performing arts and music from the 2022 adoption; computer science from the 2024 adoption. Standard text is verbatim, abridged where very long.
Standard text here is reproduced from those documents. We do not rewrite, renumber or reword a standard. Where a source is ambiguous or has been revised since we read it, the state’s document is the authority.
