Oak Park schools embark on curriculum audit

Terry Dean:

Oak Park Elementary School District 97 will undertake an audit this spring to identify strengths and weaknesses in its curriculum.

The district plans to hire an outside firm, or individual, to conduct the audit, which is scheduled to take place between April and June. It comes as D97, and school districts nationwide, prepare to implement new state-led standards on improving students' learning skills.

Lisa Schwartz, D97's curriculum coordinator, said results from the audit should be complete by late summer or early fall. The district is currently looking at potential firms, she said. Administrators talked with teachers last fall about pursuing an audit this spring. Once completed and with results in hand, Schwartz said the district will look at implementing immediate and long-term changes to the district's curriculum.
