The Board began its Feb. 27 work session with a short celebration of the district’s new K–6 reading curriculum, Core Knowledge Language Arts (CKLA). Teachers described classroom units — first graders studying the human body and fourth graders revising narratives — and showed hands‑on activities and assessments. A student in the video explained how using a thesaurus and revising drafts made stories more interesting.
Superintendent remarks framed the presentation as the district’s "North Star" and said CKLA unifies a single ELA curriculum across schools. Trustees praised the students and teachers; administration said the district will post the video on the district website for families.
No formal action was taken; the segment was a program highlight ahead of fiscal discussions.
