èßäapp¹ÙÍø

The Curriculum funds of the 2020 Bond Program are being used to adopt comprehensive, culturally relevant, research-backed and standards-based curriculum and instructional resources and materials, across our core subject areas.  Those areas include language arts, math, science, the arts, health/physical education, social sciences, English as a second language, world languages and social emotional learning. This investment will provide students with high-quality, standards-based instructional materials, will allow for a return to the Oregon textbook adoption cycle, and will support more innovative èßäapp¹ÙÍø vision-oriented courses of study (e.g. climate justice, ethnic studies, middle school redesign, experiential education and portfolios, computer science).

Advisors on Instructional Resources Committees (AIR Committees) were established for each content area adopting new resources. The committees are comprised of educators from across the district, central office leaders, school-based leadership and other stakeholders. Furthermore, extensive community engagement with students, parents, caregivers and family members was accomplished through open houses, focus groups, and additional culturally-responsive feedback loops.
