THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

Marshall County Central Schools plans to select a new comprehensive K-6 reading series for adoption in the 2027-2028 school year, replacing its older McGraw Hill Treasures curriculum. The district spent 2025-26 piloting UFLI for phonics in grade 2 and began reviewing multiple comprehensive reading series, with more reviews scheduled in 2026-27.

What it means for vendors

They explicitly state that they will spend the first two-thirds of 2026-27 reviewing and narrowing down curriculum options and aim to have a recommended selection ready in spring 2027 for school board committee and full board approval. This indicates an upcoming, structured curriculum procurement with a defined evaluation window and a clear Read Act alignment requirement. Vendors of K-6 ELA/reading curricula, digital or blended literacy programs, and aligned assessments can engage now by supporting pilots, alignment demonstrations to Minnesota READ Act and state standards, and implementation planning discussions with the district’s literacy leadership.

Background

Current core K-5 curriculum is McGraw Hill Treasures with manual standards alignment; UFLI will be used for phonics and interventions during the interim, and any new series must align with READ Act structured literacy expectations.
