Cary School District 26 is asking for feedback at the fourth annual curriculum hearing.

Members of District 26 will have the opportunity to provide feedback about curriculum in the district, which includes instruction, resources and instructional materials. 

“It allows people to have a voice in the curriculum,” Mary Dudek, director of Curriculum and instruction said. “I would guess that there would be some concerns with curriculum, with parents feeling that the children have lost some ground this year with the changes.”
