Academics

The Division of Academics fosters strong partnerships that enhance school capacity and ensure students engage with a rigorous curriculum aligned to college and career readiness expectations. As a division, we provide comprehensive support to leaders, teachers, and schools, empowering students to master essential 21st Century competencies.

We design curriculum frameworks and instructional support guides, while identifying, disseminating, and modeling research-based best practices in teaching and learning. In collaboration with other divisions, we establish clear, grade-specific K–12 standards that prepare students for future success. Our goal is for students to graduate equipped to thrive in higher education, the workforce, and the global economy.
