For New Jersey curriculum leaders, teachers, and administrators, maintaining clear alignment with the New Jersey Student Learning Standards (NJSLS) is not only essential for instruction quality but also and a critical component of QSAC (Quality Single Accountability Continuum) compliance. Whether preparing for accreditation, conducting curriculum reviews, or identifying instructional gaps, having access to accurate and actionable curriculum data ensures districts can demonstrate compliance while strengthening teaching and learning.
To support this important work, we’re pleased to introduce the newly redesigned Standards & Assessments Analysis in Atlas. These enhanced reports now offer a more intuitive layout, expanded filtering options, and deeper insights into how standards are addressed across your curriculum – giving New Jersey schools the tools they need to meet QSAC’s Instruction & Program indicators with confidence.

Enhancements that Align with QSAC Requirements
The redesigned reports anchor each view around NJSLS alignment, a core QSAC requirement. Districts can quickly demonstrate how each subject area and grade level aligns to standards, ensuring board-approved curriculum is fully documented and up-to-date.
1. Flexible Filtering for QSAC Documentation
Comprehensive filters allow users to refine results by subject area, benchmark level, assessment method, grade, or date range. For QSAC reviews, districts can generate evidence-based reports that clearly communicate alignment across content areas and highlight curriculum strengths.
2. Gap Identification for Continuous Improvement
Expanded data coverage includes insights from both units and individual lessons, offering a more complete view of standards coverage. Reports highlight gaps where standards may not be fully addressed, helping educators take action before QSAC review.
3. Drill-Down Access for Transparent Evidence of Alignment
Instantly click into data point to see the unit or lesson content tied to a standard – includingSupporting or Interdisciplinary across course(s) – making it easy to provide QSAC reviewers with clear, transparent evidence of alignment and instructional intent.
4. Customizable Displays for Multiple Audiences
Reports can be customizable to show or hide empty rows, adjust columns or toggle between summary and detailed views. This flexibility allows administrators to prepare board presentations, QSAC evidence binders, or internal curriculum reviews with the right level of detail.
