Board updates plans to pilot new social studies curriculum
Summary
District leaders told the board they are preparing to pilot a new social studies curriculum; the update described the review process and timelines leading up to the pilot phase and prompted board discussion about materials and next steps.
Dr. Christine Trendel outlined the curriculum review process being used to prepare for piloting a new social studies program, explaining the steps the district will take to evaluate materials and ready classrooms for a pilot. The board heard the rationale for a review and discussed how the pilot will be evaluated.
Trustees asked for clarification about selection criteria and evaluation metrics for the pilot; presenters did not propose an immediate vote and indicated further planning would occur before a pilot begins.
