Our Curriculum
At Napoleon, we are currently realigning our curriculum to better meet the state standards and benchmarks presented by the state of Michigan. This does not change anything for 8th grade students. In the 2015-16 School year, the 7th grade students will be studying the Western Hemisphere, as will the 6th graders. In the 2016-17 school year the curriculum will reflect the outline below
