Last week on Tuesday and Thursday, the dedicated teachers and administrators of the ALSD Math Taskforce came together to engage in presentations from multiple publishers. 📚 Using the District’s criteria and priorities as a guide, the team worked collaboratively to narrow down the options for high-quality instructional materials. The selected publishers will move forward to a pilot phase during the next school year, giving our educators and students the opportunity to experience these resources firsthand. Following the pilot, the Taskforce will make a formal recommendation to the School Board for adoption in the 2027–28 school year. We’re excited about this important step toward strengthening math instruction and supporting student success! ➕➗✨
