     Welcome to the Elementary Curriculum and Instruction Web Site!  Through 
this web site, I hope to keep you informed of what is going on in the area of 
Curriculum,  Instruction, Assessment and Staff Development in the Elementary
Schools of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia.  On this web site you will find
the following:
      +  An update of what is happening in the areas of Curriculum, 
Instruction, and assessment.  
      +  Archived copies of the C and I updates.
      +  Information on how to access workshop and staff development
opportunities through Coursewhere.

      +  Links to Curriculum Committee web sites;
      +  Middle States information
      +  Links to  websites we have found valuable
     
     I suggest that you bookmark this page on your computer.  Check often for 
updates and added information.  This page is for you.  Please feel free to 
share with us any opportunities that you may become aware of that would 
benefit other educators in the Archdiocese.  I will review them and post what 
I can.

      It is essential to the mission of Catholic Education to provide our 
students with the best education possible. In imitation of the Master 
Teacher, each of us has been called to continual preparation for this 
mission.  With this in mind,  I hope that this web site will be helpful to 
all who have committed themselves to the mission of Catholic education.

God Bless you!
