School Administrative Unit #9

Curriculum & Instruction

Across the schools in SAU#9 our focus is on teaching FOR learning so that we can realize the potential of each and every student.  At the core of our instructional program are our district competencies.  Competencies describe the "why" and "to do what" of learning.  They require students to apply and transfer their knowledge of standards to new situations.  The standards support the competencies, describing the skills students must know and be able to do.  District competencies are based upon national standards including Common Core State Standards in English language arts and mathematics, Next Generation Science Standards and the C3 framework for Social Studies.

This space is designed to house the most recent versions of curriculum documents used to guide our instruction and assessment.
