Hello! Welcome to the first-ever high school vertical team wiki! This page is for discussions regarding current high school science curriculum and vertical K-12+ alignment.

Please follow the norms we use for meetings:

Here is the current agenda for your teams (Check back often- regular changes will occur): 1) Curriculum (current) revisions and additions. a. All content teams need to look at current scope and sequence and maps and make suggestions for revisions. b. All content teams need to revisit the district common assessments c. All core content teams (biology, chemistry and physics) need to align maps with PAP clarifications. d. All activities given in curriculum need to be reviewed for rigor and alignment with TEKS.

2) K-12+ Alignments a. Starting with current high school courses, all content teams need to map the flow of relevant concepts from the K-8 strands. b. Starting with current high school courses, all content teams need to map the alignment of concepts with the College and Career Readiness Standards. c.
