Committee recommends renaming Advanced Algebra course to Algebra 2
Summary
Staff told the curriculum committee the Advanced Algebra course content aligns with standard Algebra 2 and recommended a name change to reflect that alignment.
Curriculum staff told the West Bend School District Curriculum Committee on May 20, 2025, that the district course currently titled Advanced Algebra covers content nationally recognized as Algebra 2 and recommended renaming the course to Algebra 2 to better reflect its content and curriculum alignment.
Kelly Downs, curriculum coordinator, described the recommendation as a naming-convention adjustment intended to align the course title with the material students are taught and with the district's curriculum implementation plan. Committee members treated the change as a non-substantive title update rather than a change to course content.
The committee did not record a formal vote in the transcript; staff indicated the change is procedural (a name change) and not a substantive curriculum replacement.
District staff will carry the recommendation forward as part of routine curricular updates and implementation planning.
