Curriculum Leadership Guide

This guide helps leaders look across classrooms at how instructional materials are chosen, adapted, and used. It covers six key components: curriculum alignment, ASL and English integration, accessibility, differentiation, Deaf culture and perspectives, and quality and relevance. For each rating level, from emerging to exemplary, it offers concrete improvement recommendations and a leadership move for your next step. Use it to spot patterns in material use, guide coaching and professional learning, and move toward a rigorous, schoolwide curriculum that strengthens bilingual development and reflects Deaf-centered practice.
