K-8 Math Adoption

Dear parents, families and community members,  This year is a curriculum adoption year for math. The K-8 math team has been working hard on reviewing the state approved materials for the math adoption.  This team is in the process of meeting regularly to discuss math goals in Junction City,  review virtual materials, view curriculum samples, and meet with publishers.  The K-5 team has narrowed the choices to 2 curriculums and the 6-8 team has narrowed the options down to 3 choices. Due to the changes to standards at the high school level they will be postponing their adoption until the 2023-2024 school year.  If you would like to give input on the K-8 math curriculum finalists, click on  this link .  1) To view the publisher materials, click on the picture of the curriculum.  2) Below the picture is the Oregon Department of Education (ODE) score, how the state scored the curriculum based on the criteria.  3) Once you have viewed the materials please  fill out this form .   If you would like to view the materials in-person, set up an appointment with Erika Vaughn, Director of Instruction,   evaughn@junctioncity.k12.or.us .

Integrated Guidance Plan

In 2022, the Oregon Department of Education (ODE) implemented a new initiative referred to as Aligning for Student Success: Integrated Guidance for Six ODE Initiatives , requiring Oregon school districts and charter schools to undergo a comprehensive needs assessment and application process to continue receiving funds from six key grants. The intent of the Integrated Guidance initiative is to streamline the grant application process while simultaneously aligning strategies to provide better outcomes for students. The six grants that are a part of the initiative include: High School Success (HSS) is focused on improvement of graduation rates as well as career and college readiness. Student Investment Account (SIA) is focused on reducing academic disparities while increasing academic achievement and meeting the mental and behavioral health needs of students. Continuous Improvement Planning (CIP) is focused on continuous improvement of educational opportunities. Career and Technical Education (CTE/Perkins) is focused on development of academic knowledge in addition to technical and employability skills for secondary students. Every Day Matters (EDM) is focused on addressing chronic absenteeism through increased attention on student engagement, school culture, climate and safety, culturally sustaining pedagogy, and family and community involvement. Early Indicator and Intervention Systems (EIIS) is focused on creating and supporting cohesive systems of data collection and analysis, interventions, and supports. This new process places a greater emphasis on equity, community engagement and a more well-rounded education. The Junction City School District has aligned this work with our district visioning work and strategic plan. Please feel free to review the documents below.
