In the last ten years, EUSD has seen a five point drop in math and reading scores across grade levels. One possibility for the loss of learning is the district doesn’t require teachers to use the same curriculum for each content area as a foundation. This can create gaps in learning of common core standards.
A unified curriculum requirement would ensure that every student in each grade level receives the same lessons for math and reading. The curriculum then builds on itself each year. This creates continuity in the students’ education and helps to ensure quality of instruction.
As an educator and researcher, I am uniquely qualified to investigate what is causing this drop in student learning and achievement, and put support in place to fix it.
