Parkview committee reviews multiple course proposals including science-credit realignments
Summary
The Parkview School District Curriculum and Technology Committee reviewed several course changes March 9, 2026, including reclassifying Horticulture and Large Animal & Vet Science to count toward required Science credits, proposing Earth Science to replace two courses, and considering new and consolidated electives.
The Parkview School District Curriculum and Technology Committee reviewed multiple course proposals at its March 9 meeting, including realignments that would allow two applied courses to count toward students' required Science credits. Dr. Shawn Galvin reported that Horticulture and Large Animal & Vet Science have been newly aligned to Science standards and “can now be counted for required Science credits.”
Committee members also discussed a proposal to introduce Earth Science to replace Environmental Science and Intro to Earth & Space, and a new Debate course. Staff said the Debate course is a new offering but they will check for conflicts with partner colleges’ Dual Credit Public Speaking offerings before proceeding. The proposals were presented as part of the curriculum review; no final adoption vote was recorded at this meeting.
