Top 5 Curriculum Priorities

Thank you to all who participated in our September 2017 curriculum survey. We have reviewed the results and identified the following priorities...

1. More curriculum to develop students in the 5.0-7.0 TABE range.
2. Adopt new Geometry curriculum by January 2018
3. Common Core-aligned Science curriculum
4. Advanced Math and English
5. Comprehensive Digital Literacy curriculum

*Technology and culturally responsive instruction will be embedded in all content.

(Priorities were determined based on last month's and previous survey responses, as well and the leadership team's assessment of teacher and student needs. Priorities are subject to change.)
