The Office of Curriculum and Instruction Services oversees the Curriculum and Materials Adoption Process, which articulates, aligns, and coordinates improvement efforts in the development and implementation of the district’s curriculum. Organizationally, this department falls under the Office of Teaching & Learning. The district's Director of Elementary Curriculum & Instruction reports to the Executive Director of Elementary Schools, while the Director of Secondary Curriculum & Instruction reports to the Executive Director of Secondary Schools.
Each Director is responsible for aligning their respective curriculum, instruction, and assessments to Ohio’s New Learning Standards; developing, selecting, and supporting standards-based curriculum across the district; implementing effective instructional and assessment strategies to meet students’ differentiated learning styles and needs; and providing staff professional development that demonstrates a commitment to educational excellence, ensuring students are prepared to contribute to the competitive and changing world in which we live.
