The Department of Curriculum & Instruction supports teachers in continuous improvement of their knowledge and skills. Our goal is to provide a rigorous curriculum equitably across the district. All students should have equal opportunity to have the same level of learning, and all teachers should have the tools they need to help our students achieve the learning goals.
A central team of PreK-12 specialists provide support to teachers and administrators. The team facilitates groups of teachers who review standards, recommend instructional materials, and develop support materials for all teachers to use. ESL and CTE specialists are also part of the team to provide support for all learners. The team provides district-wide professional development, and supports other staff in regional or school-based professional development.
