This cooperative offers the Texas Curriculum Management Program Cooperative (TCMPC) TEKS Resource System, a customizable online curriculum management system that is closely aligned to the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS). TCMPC TEKS Resource System’s high quality curriculum and assessment components assist schools in meeting the rigor and relevance required in the TEKS and on STAAR K-8 and end-of-course exams. The TCMPC reflects the combined efforts of all 20 ESCs to help schools improve student performance and operate more efficiently and cost-effectively.  The TEKS Resource System impacts instructional practices by providing a curriculum framework to improve student performance that includes alignment resources in math, science, social studies, and ELA in grades K–12.
