Content Area Teams
The Mukwonago Area School District utilizes a unique participatory structure for curriculum review and adoption. Every teacher in the district is a member of a Content Area Team (CAT), which focuses on a particular subject area. Middle school and high school teachers are assigned to a CAT according to their main subject area. Elementary teachers are distributed among each CATs, since they teach a wide array of subjects.
The CAT, led by the co-chairs, is responsible for analyzing student performance data, soliciting new materials, piloting curriculum, and forming a final recommendation to the school board for any adoption of new teaching resources.
