Curriculum is a broad term that includes text books, supplemental materials, lessons, activities, and assessments.
No matter what curriculum is used, all staff are required to teach to the same set of standards established by the Oregon Department of Education.
- Math – Oregon Mathematics Standards
- English Language Arts – Common Core State Standards
- Science – Next Generation Standards
- Health – Oregon Health Standards
- Social Sciences – Oregon Social Sciences Standards
Text books are a foundational curriculum and align with state standards. Text book adoptions follow a state recommended adoption cycle and are reviewed by Teaching and Learning Department leadership, elementary principals, and teacher leaders. Input is also solicited from classroom teachers and the general public.
