Curriculum Position Statement 

Milford Public Schools believes curriculum encompasses instruction, assessment, and professional learning.  

• Curriculum establishes the knowledge economy of what learners will know and be able to do through assured experiences.  

• The district’s model for High-Quality Instruction involves intentionally engineering environments where agency is cultivated through actionable feedback, a growth mindset, and developmental relationships among all learners.  

• Assessment is a co-created process in a learning environment that enables participants to understand how learners are thinking, what they know, and what skills need to be developed and refined. 

Because ongoing learning is at the center of everything we do, adult learners engage in a cycle of professional learning experiences that allow them to expand their understanding of their own needs and the developing needs of diverse learners. Through continuous reflection, evaluation, and revision, learning experiences will be improved within all environments.
