  3. Our Beliefs… All students deserve the opportunity to learn from engaging, grade-level, high quality curriculum to prepare for success in college, career and civic life.   • High quality curriculum is the foundation of an equitable academic program that includes goals, instructional practices, assessments, differentiation and intervention plans.    • High quality curriculum implemented with integrity across a system is a lever for increased student accessibility and growth.  • High quality curriculum adoption will only be successful with curriculum specific, job-embedded, high quality professional learning. • High quality curriculum must be the focus of an aligned system that begins with teacher preparation through in-service experiences.
