Testimonials

“Embracing a new program is akin to taking flight for the first time: It’s natural to feel hesitant, anxious, and fearful of the unknown. I applaud our teachers for tackling the challenge of mastering a new program, trusting Curriculum Associates to guide our professional [learning], and empowering students to improve their reading skills. I’m fully on board and eagerly anticipating what [Mat-Su] and Curriculum Associates can accomplish this school year.”

— Jana DePriest, Elementary Curriculum Coordinator, Matanuska-Susitna Borough School District
