Education shall assist the district in reviewing and analyzing
its existing curriculum with particular reference to the
educational needs of all pupils of the district and the
sufficiency of existing and future revenues and payments
available to the district for development of a curriculum
which will provide maximum educational opportunity to pupils
of the district. The review and analysis may consider
achievement of this goal not only through implementation of
traditional classroom methods but also through development of

school districts or institutions of higher education, or
alternative programs employing modern technological methods
including but not limited to the use of television,
telephones, computers, radio and other electronic devices.
