SMCAA Membership

SMCAA assists school districts with the development, implementation, and evaluation of local curriculum aligned to state/national standards. As schools ready themselves for the transition to the Common Core State Standards, SMCAA is prepared to continue its dedication to identifying and sharing successful curriculum and instructional strategies, and providing a networking framework for curriculum administrators. SMCAA will be an asset to helping your faculty adjust current curriculum and make necessary adjustments for alignment to the CCSS; including the designing of curriculum that actively engages students in their own learning if teaching content at a more complex and rigorous level is to be successfully achieved.
