Board previews new social studies curriculum; adoption vote set for May
Summary
District staff presented a recommended social studies curriculum that meets ODE criteria and will be available for public review; the board will vote on adoption in May.
Amber Jungwirth presented the recommended social studies curriculum and described the selection process she completed with colleagues. She said the curriculum met the committee's criteria and the Oregon Department of Education checklist; a QR code and handouts were provided so board members and community members can review materials online and at the district office.
Mrs. Harrington asked how the new materials differ from the previous curriculum; Jungwirth said the new curriculum is more interactive and better aligns with current teaching styles. Jungwirth said she did not expect material that would be controversial to parents. The board scheduled a vote on curriculum adoption for the May meeting.
