District Leadership
Curriculum Edge enables district content specialists to define and manage the written, taught, and tested curriculum. By understanding how well the curriculum, standards, and assessments are aligned, the district can ensure that students are held to rigorous expectations by providing students with multiple and equitable opportunities to meet and exceed these expectations.
Principals and Site Leadership
Curriculum Edge provides principals and instructional leaders such as instructional coaches and assistant principals with an understanding of what is expected at each grade level. This information enables principals and site leaders to determine which activities are standards-based and which activities are non-essential during walkthroughs or classroom observation. This information also aids in the evaluation of lesson plans submitted by teachers.
Teachers
Curriculum Edge combines multiple views of curriculum into a single set of tools to inform teacher planning and modification of lessons and to identify when specific concepts or standards will be assessed throughout the year. The applications enable teachers to see the connections between specific lessons, standards, concepts or skills, and assessments without having to consult multiple documents or struggle through hefty binders.
Families
Curriculum Edge provides students and families with information about the requirements of specific courses (e.g., graduation, AP, college bound), what is expected of their children, and when specific academic events such as district and state testing will occur. Students and families will also be able to view and download specific lessons and homework or class assignments to reinforce learning at home.
