The curriculum review process ensures a regular, cyclical review of all seven curriculum content areas: English and Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, Health, and Technology Education, Social Studies, World Languages, Physical Education, and Fine and Performing Arts. During a seven year period, Curriculum Steering Committees for each discipline plan, develop, implement, and evaluate curriculum for all content areas.

Curriculum and Learning Frameworks help teachers, parents, and students understand more clearly what students need to know, understand, and be able to do throughout their study of the core curriculum from kindergarten through middle school. The Belmont Public Schools follows the Massachusetts Frameworks Learning Standards.
