"Partner with the Advanced Academic Office expand the E3 Network from 10 to 20 schools. Improve intensity of support for network schools as they implement Engaging, Enhanced, and Extended Mathematics or E3.  The purpose of E3 is to broaden the access for third and fourth graders to a more rigorous curriculum in elementary mathematics by raising the rigor for all students through an enhanced program of studies that layers more opportunities for depth and complexity through flexible delivery of Advanced Academic extensions."

E3 schools use heterogenous math classes for grades 3 & 4 that combine regular and advanced math students; instead of having a separate advanced math class, teachers are expected to provide differentiation/extensions to advanced students within a mixed ability class. The extensions go deeper into grade-level content as opposed to the accelerated content usually taught in advanced math classes.

Twenty elementary schools used E3 last year. Unclear how many are using it this year.[/quote]
