Mounds View Public Schools

Curriculum maps provide information about the key components of a course. Mounds View Public Schools is currently in the process of creating digital curriculum maps for each course using the TIES Eclipse Curriculum Management tool. This continuous collaborative process allows for examination of content, skills, alignment and placement of standards in each course. Courses will continue to be made available throughout the 2011-2012 school year. Please check back for further updates.
