Science Curriculum Revision Open Thread

I put this up for anyone who wants to weigh in on the parent meeting last night a Ballard High on this topic.

From education activist, Kathy Smith (bold mine):

The question comes down to whether new science standards are an 'adoption' or an 'alignment.' 

Washington state legislature and Board of Education call the new science standards an 'adoption'. Curriculum 'adoption' must come before the school board. 

The district is trying to push through NGSS as an 'alignment ' which does not come before the board. 

I attended the meeting and have serious concerns. Other districts are not disrupting entire sequence etc. New science standards are incorporated into existing sequences and classes. 

The district can not answer serious questions related to colleges accepting chemistry classes that align with current math structure. 

I have enormous respect for a chemistry teacher and other teachers that formulated Oceanography classes etc. I am glad Ballard high is raising serious questions.

From the district:

The district's Science Alignment page:

The science department, including school staff, will host four regional community meetings for families to come learn more about the new requirements, the new sequence of courses, and options for students.
