Curriculum Implementation

CORE Learning builds the capacity of district and school leaders to implement high-quality instructional materials (HQIM) so that educators can ensure equitable outcomes for all students.


Our Model

CORE’s curriculum implementation model supports districts with the successful adoption and implementation of high-quality K-12 math and English Language Arts (ELA) instructional materials.

Our Curriculum Services model supports districts from the adoption process to successfully implementing HQIM. We partner with districts for three years to provide district- and school-level curriculum implementation support.

Together, we will:

Build sustainable district- and site-level curriculum implementation systems

Provide professional learning experiences that enable teachers and leaders to effectively support and implement HQIM

Engage leaders to monitor and improve curriculum implementation
