Setting the Stage:
Countless curricular decisions are made in districts continually, but none, more importantly, following a Crisis.
How curriculum leaders arrive at these decisions varies.
• More progressive school districts have continuous improvement models in place to address curriculum decision-making and are constantly affecting changes in the curriculum as a result of these plans.
• Others approach curricular decisions as a response to an identified need that has presented itself due to student performance or other pressures.
• Some make decisions haphazardly without results,
• While some school districts demonstrate lethargy and apathy toward curricular decision-making and are stagnant for all intents and purposes. (Gordon, Taylor, Oliva, 2019)
Organizational staff and administrators have a wide range of leadership, instruction, curriculum, technology, data analysis, organization, and communication capabilities. The challenge is finding a way to meet the needs while capitalizing on the people to get the work done collaboratively.
