Curriculum notes
CDE’s 2015 list identifies EMC Publishing’s program for grades 6–8 as Basic ELA (Program 1). The broader publisher program covers 6–12, but this record is limited to California middle-school scope. The submitted copyright year is not independently established. EdReports’ ©2016 review has Gateway 1 Meets Expectations, Gateway 2 Partially Meets Expectations and Gateway 3 Not Eligible. Those findings must not be attributed to every later edition.
