Academic Standards
click on state to check local regulations and academic standards.
PAC textbooks are currently aligned with the state standards of Arizona and Texas while meeting or exceeding standards of most states. PAC editors have provided more content than expected so teachers may prescribe specific lessons to address local standards.
CLARIFICATION
OF LESSONS FOR
TRANSCRIPT CREDIT
PAC customers have
asked for clarification of the amount of PAC material which should be
completed for transcript credit. Although each state stipulates specific
skills and knowledge which must be taught to students at specific grade
levels, PAC has established the following general guidelines for assigning
transcript credit.(*)

(*) PAC is currently
aligning PAC courses with Arizona and Texas academic standards.
(^) Social studies (PPP of America) chapters 1-6 may also be used at the
high school level; in fact, many schools are already using these chapters
to meet or exceed state academic requirements at the high school level.
(§) Quantity includes texts plus activity books, quizzes and tests.
++ These courses may contain essential skills and knowledge needed for
effective student recovery programs. Teachers are encouraged to “pick
and choose” specific sections/chapters which are included in state
academic standards allowed for remedial course transcript credit. The
PAC individualized/accelerated format accommodates selective assignments
from various course chapters to build an effective recovery program.
Monitor this site for specific standards to be added as they are available.
