Curriculum & Instructional Support
Six-Year Instructional Plan
In May 2003, the Anchorage School Board called for a six-year instructional plan to chart a course for "closing the achievement gap" while concurrently increasing achievement for all students. The original plan and subsequent revisions have been organized around the three adopted School Board goals, summarized below:
- Increase achievement of all students and reduce the achievement gap;
- Provide a supportive and effective learning environment; and
- Ensure public accountability
The final plan was adopted by the school board on May 10, 2004. It added the Human Resources and Communications departments' plans, abstracts, and a glossary. Since its inception, five
additional chapters have been added to the plan: 21st Century Community Learning Centers, Cultural Responsiveness, Advanced Placement, Libraries, and Integrated Assessment. The plan is reviewed and updated annually.
