State Standards are created via a collaborative effort between educators, politicians, military and business leaders as well as the general public. The work of this collective is guided by educational research and national benchmarks.
Local
Local School Districts evaluate, unpack, and arrange the State Standards, but all districts are accountable to them.
At the Harrison School District, curriculum is unpacked and arranged by the Department of Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment with the guidance of teachers, administrators, and approved by the Harrison School District Board of Education
