602.3 Curriculum Evaluation

CURRICULUM EVALUATION

When deemed necessary by the superintendent, and whenever a new program is proposed, the Board will review the curriculum to determine its strengths and weaknesses.  The Board may authorize the superintendent to appoint an ad hoc advisory committee to review the curriculum.

The Board shall review the students' performance on standardized tests, courses, and other indicators of student achievement deemed relevant by the Board as a guideline for the effectiveness of the curriculum.  It shall be the responsibility of the superintendent to provide the Board with the test scores and grades along with the superintendent's comments about the school district's curriculum.
