WDE Media Release: Superintendent Degenfelder launches Curriculum Transparency Initiative
January 23, 2024
State Superintendent of Public Instruction, Megan Degenfelder, and the Wyoming Department of Education (WDE) have launched the Curriculum Transparency page as outlined in the 2023-2027 WDE Strategic Plan.
Anyone can use this online resource to quickly access their district’s primary resources, such as textbooks, and understand their alignment to Wyoming K-12 State Standards. The ability to quickly understand what textbook is being used for what grade and subject will empower parents to make informed decisions and inquiries about their children’s education. The initiative was a collaboration between the WDE and school districts that worked to identify a user-friendly method to provide access to this critical information. Districts included: Big Horn County #2, Natrona County #1, Park County #1, Park County #6, Sheridan County #2, Sweetwater County #2, Lincoln County #1 and Weston County #7.
This joint effort demonstrates a dedication to delivering accessible and transparent information, with the ultimate goal of benefiting students, educators, and the entire community.
The webpage also includes resources about standards requirements, by grade level. These documents are intended to help parents easily view what is required of their child at each grade level, and connect those requirements to their district's curriculum and instruction materials
