Hi Friend,
We understand the complexities district leaders face when it comes to improving student outcomes, especially in K-12 mathematics. The need for high-quality instructional materials (HQIM) has never been more critical, and the curriculum adoption process is no small task.
Districts and schools can successfully scale their efforts by focusing on strong teacher support systems, data-driven decision making, and long-term planning efforts. Yet, we also know the road to implementation is filled with challenges—finding materials that align with state standards, securing buy-in from educators, and maintaining consistent quality across diverse classrooms.
In this edition, we share insights on how districts are navigating the HQIM journey, like Rivet Education’s approach to scaling HQIM and the groundwork laid by other districts preparing for successful implementation. We hope these stories inspire new strategies and offer practical solutions to overcoming barriers and delivering high-quality math instruction at scale.
