Curriculum Development

The Fall Creek School District utilizes a 6 year cycle of curriculum adoption. The cycles include reviewing/reflecting, research/needs assessment/pilot, adoption/implementation, maintain/sustain, maintain sustain. 

This cycle allows staff to fully work within their curriculum before updates may need to be made or addressed.
