Academic Standards:
All students that attend El Puente will learn through a curriculum program that is differentiated to meet various learning styles. We at El Puente have found that students can learn a wider range of skills when teachers can incorporate “real” uses for the curriculum. The “real” use provides more opportunities for projects and hands-on experiences. El Puente High School has adopted the pupil academic standards issued by the governor as executive order no. 326, dated January 13, 1998 (Wisconsin Model Academic Standards.)
