Okay. So our big focus with our curriculum Marzano states that in order to be a high reliability school you need to have a safe school, a safe school and a guaranteed and viable curriculum and guaranteed meaning it's aligned vertically and horizontally so across classrooms as well as across grade levels and then viable meaning we have enough time to implement that curriculum so a lot of our work we do in the summer is tinkering with that and making sure we have things that are aligned with state standards that are aligned within our system, within our district and then making adjustments to that. We developed a curriculum website as a way to be transparent with what we teach within our classrooms and so we put a lot of work into that and curated a lot of information for the public with that piece. This site will change with the upcoming changes to the district website and we're making some different kinds of changes to help make it a little easier to navigate and to understand some of those pieces so I think our time and theory of practice has shifted a little bit but always our goal is being transparent with what our teaching and learning environments look like in our classrooms so the pieces I'm asking you to approve tonight fall into four categories. One is our new courses and complete rewrites and we have a process we go through each year around new courses that I highlight.

One is our new courses and complete rewrites and we have a process we go through each year around new courses that I highlight. Some work around alignment within the district so when we make changes throughout the system. Reinstatement of courses so sometimes we, a course goes dormant for a little while because of student lack of interest or because of training for teachers, et cetera, and sometimes we reinstate courses and then just some minor adjustments that we make.

So the summer work really falls into these categories and this year our new courses, so part of our new course proposal process is that a curriculum committee goes through the approval through the committee, goes to the building leadership team for approval, comes to the curriculum coordinators council which is all disciplines and then ends with me so I have the last right of refusal or approval and so our new courses this year are amped on algebra which is a combined algebra and business course and really is something that we're super excited about because it's really moving into this real sign up for this class it's anybody who their course as a freshman would be algebra so college prep algebra they can sign up for that course.

It's a two period course in conjunction with business and their work is really around running the school store and understanding algebra concepts through this idea of business and then when I met with the teachers the other day they expanded my mental model of this because how much of the class is it? on the class and they're using that class to print all of their shirts and everything so they're working on all of those pieces so it's an exciting course and it's team taught with a business teacher and math teacher so the students get credit for both.

Can we ask them to get extra credit if they run the concession stand?
