**Body:** WUSD Board of Education

**Jurisdiction:** SLED

**Tags:** Education


The WUSD Board of Education Curriculum Committee met on September 16, 2026, to discuss a draft secondary-novel evaluation form and the scope of a proposed literature review. Public commenters questioned the form’s objectivity, evaluator qualifications, and potential effects on classroom materials; committee members discussed its draft status, the need for balance, and the role of teachers in reviewing literature. The committee considered whether to begin with one grade and how to coordinate the review with existing curricula, including Wit & Wisdom and AP courses.

The committee planned to revise the draft form for discussion at its October meeting, explore world-language options, identify possible resources for reviewing state standards, and include Wit & Wisdom in a curriculum audit. Members noted the cost of replacing existing curriculum and the district’s financial stewardship responsibilities, but made no contract, purchasing, or budget-allocation decision. No procurement activity was identified.
