Curriculum committee orders four state-approved ELA programs for grades 6–12
Summary
The West Bonner County School District #83 Curriculum Adoption Committee ordered four state-approved English language arts programs for grades 6–12 after screening for state "comprehensive" status and an EdReports rating of "meets." The committee also added an EdReports tracking column to its spreadsheet for vendor comparisons.
The West Bonner County School District #83 Curriculum Adoption Committee reviewed a Grades 6–12 State Approved Curriculum document on April 17, 2025, and ordered four English language arts programs that met the district's screening criteria. Committee member Peggy Loutzenhiser shared the spreadsheet and said she added a column for EdReports ratings to compare vendor materials.
Using two filters — a state classification of “comprehensive” and an EdReports score of “meets” — the committee identified and ordered four programs: Into Reading/Into Literature (HMH); StudySync Core ELA (HMH); EL Education Language Arts (6–8) / Odell High School Literacy (9–12) (OUR); and myPerspectives English Language Arts (Savvas). The committee recorded this ordering action in the meeting notes; no mover/second or vote tally was provided in the record. The committee plans to continue reviewing implementation details and scheduling follow-up discussion at future meetings.
