Our Curriculum
The site functions primarily to provide GUHSD teachers and staff critical information about GUHSD’s common-core aligned, district-wide ELA summative writing assessments. Additionally, this site contains documentation designed to assist teachers and schools in their efforts to more closely align teaching practices, expectations, and objectives with the common core state standards. Achieving these purposes will ideally further promote confidence, conversation, collaboration, and equity between and within GUHSD schools.
We strive to have diversity in our staff, which represents our community’s culture, ethnicity and background.
