Atlas Curriculm Maps
"Atlas" is the Augusta School Department’s curriculum mapping site. There you can browse district courses that are being taught in our K-12 schools. You will be able to review the standards, content, and skills for each district map you browse. These maps are always a work in progress and will continually change to reflect current standards and instructional practices. Please contact your child’s teacher or building administrator for any additional information you may require.
Due to the collaborative nature of our curriculum mapping process, searching by individual teacher name may not yield results. Please search by course, subject, or grade to find the classes you are interested in. Blank or empty courses may be "under construction" or not currently taught.
