Anclote's curriculum is based on the Common Core Standards, Sunshine State Standards and the Grade Level Expectations determined by the state of Florida and the Pasco County Schools District.  Within a Continuous Progress setting, our children are encouraged to reach their highest potential in all academic and social areas.
