9.11. K-2 English Language Arts Curriculum Purchase
Description:
The District budgeted for curriculum purchases and has $20,000 to spend on additional curriculum. It has been determined through the standards unpacking process that there are gaps in resources. After careful consideration of the executive summary (attached), we are recommending that we use additional capital funds to make a K-2 ELA curriculum purchase. We feel that the MN online consortium and the purchase of Schoology as our Learning Management System should be used with grades 3-12 during this school year prior to committing to an additional ELA purchase for additional grade levels.
