Curriculum Advisory Committees

There are seven curriculum advisory committees: one general committee, a special education instruction committee, an accelerated and enriched instruction committee, and a committee for each of the four subject areas, English/language arts, mathematics, science, and social studies. Committee membership includes representation from Montgomery County Council of PTA’s, and other organizations representing parents and community. The advisory committees meet with the director of curriculum and instruction, the supervisor of special education instruction, and with the subject area supervisors on a regular basis.
