Board hears curriculum updates and three resources entering 30‑day review
Summary
A curriculum presenter outlined 'belonging' events and listed instructional resources slated for 30‑day review, including a Trevor Noah title proposed for AP Language, two supplemental books, and a districtwide AP Environmental Science curriculum.
The board heard a curriculum update explaining district efforts to build belonging activities and review instructional materials. The presenter said 3–4 grade belonging events have grown and that one 6th‑grade event was canceled this year due to AP testing conflicts.
The presenter identified three resources entering the district’s 30‑day review for consideration at the June meeting: a Trevor Noah book proposed for AP Language at Eastern High School and two supplemental titles transcribed in the record as "The Secret Life of Groceries" and another title transcribed as "Everything is Tuberculosis," as well as a new AP Environmental Science curriculum for districtwide adoption. Board members were advised those materials will return for formal action in June.
Board members asked no extended questions during the presentation. The curriculum item will be treated as a 30‑day review and brought back to the board for potential approval at the next meeting.
