Learners Today, Leaders Tomorrow

Curriculum and Instruction

Curriculum & Instruction Department

The Pascagoula-Gautier School District’s Curriculum & Instruction Department partners with teachers and school leaders to strengthen teaching and learning from Pre-K through graduation. The Center for Teaching and Learning serves as our hub for curriculum support, instructional coaching, and professional learning.

Our work connects curriculum, instruction, assessment, and professional learning so schools have clear expectations, useful resources, and practical support.
