Parents' Right to Know

Overview

The Parents’ Right to Know Act (Act 2024-35) requires Huntsville City Schools to ensure that current adopted curricula for each class is available on the website of the school and that access to online curricula is available to students, parents, or guardians of enrolled students through the school website. Huntsville City Schools strives to carefully align all academic and curricular decisions with the Alabama State Department of Education’s Courses of Study, the Alabama Comprehensive Assessment Program (ACAP), and the American College Test (ACT). The Alabama Courses of Study are available via the Alabama State Department of Education website.

District-wide Curriculum Resources

The district is working to compile a list of district-wide resources which will be shared here as soon as it is available. Please check back soon to see the full listing.

Individual Classroom Curriculum

In addition to the above list, individual schools and educators retain the discretion to add to these resources to facilitate mastery of specific educational standards. The supplemental resources used in your child’s classroom are listed and/or available via your classroom teacher's Schoology page. Additionally, many of the district’s curriculum and supplemental resources are accessible via your student’s Huntsville City Schools’ device by using your students login credentials. For further information regarding supplemental resources available in your student’s classroom, you may contact your student’s classroom teacher and/or school principal.
