Overview
The mathematics and science curricula strongly emphasize those aspects of knowledge that are most likely to contribute to a student’s ability to explain, reason, communicate, and problem-solve, using mathematics and science.
Goals
- Improve the teaching and learning of mathematics and science while advancing student achievement
Program benefits
- An accelerated K-8 mathematics and science curriculum moves students to abstract-based concepts in mathematics and lab-based concepts in science
- Each school should have a functioning Math and Science Lab that allow students to explore their learning experiences
- Builds a cadre of mathematics and science endorsed teachers that not only understand content but also use that knowledge to create integrated activities that challenge a student's imagination while building an appreciation for quantitative literacy
- Improves student achievement in mathematics and science
Results
The Mathematics and Science program develops a means for school collaboration, and builds confidence in the teaching of mathematics and science education to parents and the community. More information is available at the website below.
