District curriculum and special education staff updated the board on an executive‑functioning curriculum being piloted in several schools and recommended expanding K‑12 coordination and parent resources.
Why it matters: staff said executive function skills affect classroom behavior and academic success; the district is piloting classroom practices, agenda‑book strategies and tutorial lessons at the middle school and plans a keynote speaker in November focused on executive functioning.
Board members suggested offering parent education (one‑pagers or short resources) that mirror in‑school strategies so families can reinforce the same skills at home. Staff said the pilot is intended to deepen and widen practices over time rather than “goal jump” year to year, and that the district will share promising resources identified in the pilot with families.
Next steps include continued pilot evaluation, possible parent education offerings in January or February, and sharing recommended resources with families through school communications.
