The District is seeking four (4) dedicated Elementary ELD teachers to serve on a high-impact Curriculum Selection Committee. We are prioritizing the adoption of a specialized, supplemental curriculum designed specifically for our Level 1 (Entering) and Level 2 (Emerging) students.

Our goal is to evaluate, score, and select two modern programs for a pilot phase at two elementary schools to ensure our newest learners have the high-scaffolded resources they need to succeed.

• Represent your school's unique needs and student profile in district-level decisions.
• Evaluate 3–4 specialized newcomer curricula using a standardized rubric.
• Participate in "deep-dive" sessions with digital trial access and physical samples.
• Collaborate to design the pilot implementation plan and grant "Statement of Need."

• Total Time: 8 hours (inclusive of 4 hours of synchronous meetings and 4 hours of asynchronous material review/rubric scoring).
• Meeting Dates:
  Once the team is selected, we will coordinate a recurring 1-hour weekly meeting time that best accommodates the whole group.
• Grade Level Diversity:
  To ensure a comprehensive view, we are looking for a mix of lower-elementary (1-2) and upper-elementary (3-5) perspectives.

• Current ELD Teacher at one of the four elementary buildings.
• Experience working with Level 1/2 "Newcomer" populations.
• Interest in curriculum leadership and grant-funded instructional design.
