Welcome to the New Directions Task Force site about our efforts for curriculum renewal. Members of the task force developed a vision for our students as Fearless Learners™. Driving our new curriculum proposal is our understanding that learning is not just about studying what is known, but also about curiosity,discovering new ideas and challenging ourselves to do better.
To submit suggestions for review by the NDTF for curriculum redesign, please send me an email. Thank you for your interest in our efforts!
