Board adopts 'The Art of Dementia Care' for CNA course
Summary
The board approved adoption of a curricular resource, 'The Art of Dementia Care,' for the Health Care Specialist CNA course beginning in 2026–27 to allow students to access a credential in dementia care.
Ms. Ramirez recommended adopting 'The Art of Dementia Care' as curricular material for the Health Care Specialist CNA course, starting in the 2026–27 school year. She said the material would let students take the test necessary to earn a credential in dementia care, which the administration views as a workforce-relevant credential for students in that pathway.
The board moved to adopt the resource, and the motion passed 4-0 after a second. Administrators said the adoption supports career and technical instruction and aligns with efforts to provide credentials of value to students.
