​The purpose of the Rockdale County Public Schools (RCPS) Curriculum Department is to ensure that our schools provide students wit instruction in the concepts and skills essential for mastery of standards. At each grade level, our curriculum is based upon the Georgia Performance Standards. These performance standards identify the skills needed to solve problems, reason, communicate, and make connections with other information.

Within those state-mandated learning expectations, our teachers must have a clear understanding of what to teach, how to teach it, when to teach it, and how to determine if students have learned the material. We rely on a process known as the Cycle of Results to ensure that our students master the required standards.
