Abstract: These records were created by the Steering Committee and its related entities to explore, develop, propose, and implement a new curriculum, from its first inception in 1982 through the creation of an administrative office to begin full implementation in 1987. Records include membership lists, agenda, minutes of meetings and related records, notes, drafts, audiotapes, and correspondence. Topics reflected in the records are the historical background of pre-reform curriculum, the need for reform, desired outcomes, and proposed implementation methods.
