Amity School District 4J
Adopted: 5/9/90
Curriculum Development
The Board believes it is necessary to continually develop and modify the district’s curriculum to meet changing needs in technology and fields of knowledge and to assure the full, rounded and continuing development of students. While keeping with the requirements of state law, the Board authorizes the superintendent to review the curriculum periodically and to advise the Board on needed curriculum changes.
While the Board retains its full rights and responsibilities under the laws and regulations of the State of Oregon with regard to determining curriculum, it authorizes the administration to organize committees and other structures which would be responsive and representative in planning curriculum improvements and be effective at implementing approved changes.
Decision-making within the curriculum improvement process should be based on reliable data collected through a comprehensive assessment of needs. The assessment should include, but is not limited to, evaluation of student performance using appropriate measurement tools and procedures, surveys of parent perceptions, and professional staff recommendations.
