Learning Comes To Life
Curriculum & Standards Alignment • Your Next Stop Travels • Cabarete, Dominican Republic
Five days of community-based learning connecting food security, regenerative and civic agriculture, ecosystem stewardship, waste reduction, Dominican food traditions, and social entrepreneurship.
Cabarete Sostenible connects classroom learning with food security, regenerative and civic agriculture, ecosystem stewardship, waste reduction, Dominican food traditions, and social entrepreneurship. Select your state to view the relevant science standards, followed by national frameworks (NGSS, ACTFL, C3, NCSS). These alignments identify curriculum connections, not a promise that every performance expectation is fully taught or assessed during travel. Teachers determine assignments and assessment.
Choose your state to see its standards first, followed directly by the national frameworks that apply to every state.
