GCPS Invites Public to Review Classroom Curriculum

Gwinnett County Public Schools (GCPS) invites parents and members of the community to join GCPS staff members in a review of proposed curriculum materials. Parents may provide input on the proposed materials by participating in the public review, which will be held at headquarters in Suwanee.

GCPS holds an extensive review before adopting materials for classroom use. Parents, community members, teachers, and administrators review materials to ensure alignment with the school system’s Academic Knowledge and Skills (AKS) curriculum.

During this year’s review, scheduled to run from Sept. 17-28, GCPS staff and members of the Gwinnett community will review non-fiction books for grades K-12, teacher resources for grades K-8 Language Arts, and Advanced Placement Latin materials.

The location and times available to review the materials are:

Instructional Support Center (ISC)
Building 200 Lobby, 437 Old Peachtree Road NW, Suwanee
Monday–Friday, Sept. 17–28, 8 a.m.–4 p.m.
Thursday, Sept. 20, 5–8 p.m.
Saturday, Sept. 22, 10 a.m.–2 p.m.

Based on all input gathered from this review, a recommendation will be made to the Gwinnett County Board of Education for adoption of materials. 

For more information about the instructional review process, contact Lisa Burleson, GCPS Director of Instructional Materials, at 678-301-6831.
