Sometimes the fastest way to improve is to take a closer look at what is already in place. Use these questions with your leadership team to identify what is working, what feels inconsistent, and what needs attention next.

35 years ago, CLI began with a simple belief: Curriculum should be built with educators, not handed to them.
✔️Local voices matter.
✔️Systems matter.
✔️Clarity matters.
That belief still guides our work today.

We are so grateful for this milestone!
Celebrating 35 years of CLI 🎉
These are the faces behind it all, 35 years ago!
While so much has grown, our purpose remains the same: partnering with districts, working alongside teachers, and bringing it all to life.
This is where it started.

Thanks, @mctownsley and @Chad_mLang, for sharing your experience and expertise through relatable examples. Your work and wisdom are always inspiring!
Sustainable grading reform takes time.

Districts that sustain change don’t treat grading reform as “one more initiative.” They embed it within aligned systems.

Curriculum isn’t built through adoption. It’s built through alignment.
CLI helps districts:
→ define essential learning
→ align instruction and assessment
→ use resources intentionally

Hey Middle Grade Leaders! We have a quick question.
If your 6–8 curriculum is “under construction,” what part needs reinforcement?
We’re looking forward to conversations at @NCMiddle NCMLE about building middle schools that challenge and support, not just maintain.

Leoti-Wichita County math teachers are putting the final touches on their local curriculum. The read-through gives the committee one more chance to critique the draft before it goes to the Curriculum Coordinating Council for approval.

Inconsistent expectations are one of the quietest risks in a district.
Two schools.
Same standards.
Different experiences.
If a student moved schools tomorrow, would the expectations feel the same? What makes cross-building alignment hardest in your district?
