About Math:
- We focus on mastery of the Common Core Math Standards
- We use the Saxon Math Program-improving standardized test scores since its implementation three years ago AND student classroom performance and confidence
- What’s great about Saxon Math?
- It’s Incremental-Concepts are taught in small, approachable increments.
- It’s Distributed-The increments are spread throughout the year, building in complexity, so that by the end of the year students have reached deep understanding and fluency.
- It’s Cumulative-Practice and assessments include concepts from the most recent lessons as well as from earlier in the year, ensuring students retain all concepts and can make connections between them.
