District news
Coventry approves a redesigned World Language curriculum
What happened
The School Committee approved the district’s World Language curriculum by a 5–0 vote. The curriculum, developed over five to six years, uses proficiency-based instruction and world-readiness standards, with proficiency targets, scope and sequence, scaffolding, and performance assessment.
Why it matters to families
This establishes the instructional framework for world-language courses, including how students build and demonstrate language proficiency.
The evidence
The September 24 minutes record the 5–0 approval (document 97941). At the September 10 presentation, district staff described the curriculum’s proficiency-based design, world-readiness standards, proficiency targets, scope and sequence, scaffolding, and assessment practices, and said the work had taken about five to six years (document 90176).
