Standards for Mathematical Practice1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them
…start by explaining the meaning of a problem and looking for entry points to its solution
2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively…make sense of quantities and their relationships to problem situations
3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others…understand and use stated assumptions, definitions, and previously established results in constructing arguments
4. Model with mathematics…can apply the mathematics they know to solve problems arising in everyday life, society, and the workplace

Standards for Mathematical Practice
5. Use appropriate tools strategically…consider the available tools when solving a mathematical problem
6. Attend to precision…communicate precisely using clear definitions and calculate accurately and efficiently
7. Look for and make use of structure…look closely to discern a pattern or structure
8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning…notice if calculations are repeated, and look for both general methods and for shortcuts

College Preparatory Pathway
• KEY GOAL: Students master the CCSS curriculum by 11th grade and
complete a 4th course in math in their senior year.
• 7th and 8th grade build solid foundations in basic math and the SMPs
• Students can choose this pathway entering 9th grade but can still
access the Advanced Pathway by taking summer school after 9th
grade

Advanced College Preparatory Pathway
• KEY GOAL: 7th and 8th grade build solid foundations in basic math and SMPs
• 8th grade curriculum contains about 60% of former Algebra I curriculum
• This contains CCSS Algebra I, Geometry and Algebra II covering 50% of
traditionally Pre-Calculus topics --statistics and probability, basic function
analysis and advanced trigonometry

Math Readiness Is The Goal
Current math standards emphasize deep understanding of concepts, application of skills and solving novel (non-routine) problems.
Basic math computation, memorization of formulas, plugging numbers into equations to derive an answer do not prepare students for advanced level math courses in high school and beyond.
Providing opportunities to every student to access calculus by her/his senior year
