Fraser Board adopts Wit & Wisdom ELA program for grades K–6

Fraser Board of Education · February 9, 2026

Summary

The Fraser Board of Education unanimously approved the Wit & Wisdom English language arts program for kindergarten through sixth grade. Board members said the program will replace current materials districtwide beginning in the 2026–27 school year; a parent praised the program pilot.

The Fraser Board of Education voted unanimously Feb. 9 to adopt the Wit & Wisdom ELA program for students in kindergarten through sixth grade. The motion was made by Kathleen Moco, Secretary, and supported by Robyn Norbeck; the board recorded "Ayes: All; Nays: None."

Board members said the program was recommended by district elementary leaders after pilot work and multiple classroom assessments. In public comment, parent Molly Magnotte praised the pilot: "her 5th grade student has really loved the Wit and Wisdom program (he is in one of the pilot classes) and he typically has not loved ELA in the past." District leaders said pilot results informed the recommendation.

The adoption moves curriculum materials into district purchasing and implementation planning for classroom rollout. The board did not attach additional funding details in the motion; implementation and training logistics will be handled by the district's elementary education office and reported at future meetings.
