  • What's new

    Find what fits, your way

    We've added new ways to explore curricula on your own terms. You can now skip the survey entirely and browse our whole catalog from the chooser page. You can also start by your state and see curricula that meet your local requirements first. When you do take the survey, your results now read "Hits N of your Y goals" instead of a percentage, which is easier to scan. The home page got a refresh with three tiles for finding what you want faster. Two small wins: sign-in from a Facebook or Instagram link is roughly twice as fast now, and community updates that came from your feedback get a tag so you can see your impact.
