How do my state or local education agencys standards fit into the PECAT?
Your state or local education agencys standards may guide the curriculum under review. The PECAT committee will determine where there is overlap with the national standards. The committee should discuss whether the state or school district has adopted additional standards and whether additional or modified content and student assessment scoring analyses need to be created to meet local needs. The PECAT committee is best suited to determine what the main components of each additional standard are and proceed with the analysis. The end of each content and student assessment analysis includes a template for any additional standards the committee deems essential to analyze.
