Research shows that curriculum can greatly impact the success of our nation’s most underserved students. However, the lack of transparent information about instructional materials and quality curriculum used in K–12 US classrooms has been a pervasive problem.

Currently, only a handful of states require systematic curriculum reporting by school districts. This lack of transparency leaves key stakeholders across research, policy, supply, and enablement functions without sufficient information on student access to quality materials. Moreover, district leaders have to operate in isolation without understanding the choices peers are making across the nation and how these are impacting student outcomes.
