Curriculum
The Curriculum Department provides curricular support to the 16 schools, kindergarten through eighth grade, in the Litchfield Elementary School District. This website has been created to provide information pertaining to Litchfield's Curricular Resources and Special Programs. The website will be updated on an ongoing basis to provide access to the most current information in a usable format.
Our department supports standards based core and supplemental instructional support through providing materials and professional development. Traditional Academy, gifted, and science center are also managed by the Curriculum Department.
Additional curriculum supports includes annually facilitating elementary and middle school curriculum teams to:
- Update ELA, Math, Science, and Social Studies curriculum guides and assessments
- Update ways in which teachers access curriculum guides and increase support for implementation
- Respond to the identified needs of teachers and students
