SAS® Curriculum Pathways® Now Available to
SchoolCity Assessment and Data Management Customers
CARY, NC (Sept. 10, 2014) -- SAS® Curriculum Pathways® is the latest product to join the growing resource content
library within SchoolCity’s STARS® Assessment and Data Management software. SchoolCity users can join the
nearly 190,000 teachers and students already using the free digital resources for K-12.
“This partnership with SAS Curriculum Pathways is another example of how SchoolCity is committed to providing
our teacher customers and their students with the absolute best solutions and resources available to help improve
teaching and learning,” said Vaseem Anjum, CEO of SchoolCity.
SAS Curriculum Pathways online curriculum resources have been proven to increase student learning and teacher
effectiveness by targeting higher-order thinking skills. The learner-centered approach integrates varied instructional
strategies and incorporates formative and summative assessments. More than a thousand interactive, web-based
curriculum resources include English language arts, math, science, social studies and Spanish.
“Today’s students respond best to engaging, interactive resources that promote the skills to succeed in school and
beyond,” said Scott McQuiggan, Director of SAS Curriculum Pathways. “While SAS Curriculum Pathways resources
are available at no cost to educators and their students, SchoolCity’s STARS™ Suite connects thousands more
teachers and students with compelling content in SAS Curriculum Pathways.”
Since 1999, SchoolCity has delivered assessment, curriculum and data management solutions to educators across
the United States. In 2014, SchoolCity launched a brand new Common Core version of their flagship product
(STARS™ Suite). With an all-new online testing feature, STARS™ Suite provides students with much needed
practice at taking assessments online and new CCSS item types similar to those being delivered by PARCC and
SBAC member states. With a newly enhanced resource library feature, SchoolCity is perfectly positioned to deliver,
via single sign-on, the outstanding interactive tools and lessons from SAS Curriculum Pathways.
