District staff said the Amplify Science curriculum adopted over the summer requires updated trimester- and grade-level report-card indicators; pilot-team feedback informed a streamlined set of indicators and administration will upload the document once approved.
District staff told the board that after adopting the Amplify Science curriculum over the summer the district must update elementary report-card indicators to reflect the new resource. The presenter said pilot team members and feedback from the Amplify vendor helped the district identify the most critical proficiency pieces by grade and unit and that the indicators are broken out by trimester.
The presenter said the full indicators are in the board packet and that the document was shortened based on pilot-team feedback to focus on essentials. Board members asked that staff communicate with teachers and parents after implementation to gather feedback and make adjustments if needed. Administration said once approved, the indicators and standards would be posted online for parent access.
