"Each of the 194 curriculum documents provided by district personnel was reviewed and rated on each of five general criteria that supports effective curriculum management."

"The maximum composite score a guide could receive is 15. A score of 12 or more is considered a strong guide."

• "The rankings of the guides ranged from a high of 14 to a low of 3 points.
• Seventy-one percent of the guides received a score less than 12 points indicating the lack of strong guides in all curricular areas.
• The average rating of the guides was 8.96 on a scale of 0 to 15."

"Given the low rankings ... auditors concluded that curriculum guides were inadequate statements of work for teachers in the delivery of instruction."
