The board approved several curriculum-related purchases and agreements, including Freckle (Renaissance), Vector Training Safety and Compliance Plus, an agreement with Turnitin and affiliation and concurrent enrollment agreements with La Roche University.
The North Allegheny School Board on June 11 approved five curriculum-related action items and one information-only item presented by Miss Hardy.
Board action items included the purchase of Freckle from Renaissance, the purchase of Vector Training Safety and Compliance Plus, approval of an agreement with Turnitin, an affiliation agreement with La Roche University and a concurrent enrollment agreement with La Roche University. Miss Hardy also noted an information-only item detailing eight student-teacher requests for the next school year.
