HUMAN GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE OPPORTUNITY!!! The Kettle Moraine School District is committed to regularly evaluating and strengthening our curriculum to ensure it meets the needs of our students and community. Each subject area undergoes a comprehensive five-year review process. During the 2026–2027 school year, Human Growth and Development will be reviewed for programming serving students in upper elementary, middle school, and high school. Committee members should be willing to share perspectives, ask questions, consider diverse viewpoints, and help develop appropriate student programming. The committee will work under the direction of the Kettle Moraine School Board and Dr. Steve Plum, Superintendent. The committee of 15-20 randomly selected with representation from each category, will be led by Brian Adamczyk, Curriculum Leader for Health & Physical Education and Chris Otto, Chief Academic Officer.
If you are interested in being part of this important conversation and helping shape the future of Human Growth and Development education in Kettle Moraine, we invite you to submit your name for consideration.
Committee members will participate in several meetings throughout the 2026–2027 school year. The process will culminate in a final report and recommendations presented to the Kettle Moraine School Board for consideration and approval in May 2027.
