SDUHSD’s Gradual & Multi-Year Transition
Slide3Key Curricular Decisions
Integrated or Traditional Approach?
All Math teachers educated on options via meetings & PD sessions
Site departments made independent recommendations via chairsUnanimous recommendation to move to Integrated approachWhat Courses to Offer and in Which Order?Chairs, ToSA’s, Principals brainstormed optionsFour options presented to all teachers via PD sessionsDepartments discussed and made suggestions/revisionsCounselors/Sped/EL/Parents/Feeders provided inputSite departments made independent recommendation via chairsResulted in 3 tier (Intervention, CP, Honors) pathways with flexible entry/exit points
