At Curriculum Associates, our mission goes beyond the classroom—it’s about creating meaningful change for students, educators, and the communities we serve. Recently, our leadership team and India team members had the opportunity to spend the day with the students and faculty at Ramagondanahalli Government School. We were thrilled to support the school’s library, helping foster a love for reading and learning, and to paint a vibrant mural on the school wall, bringing color and inspiration to the space. It was a day full of connection and creativity, reminding us of the impact we can make when we come together as a community. #InsideCAIndia #FacesOfCA #EdTechIndia Rob Waldron Kelly Sia Rajeev Kapoor
