[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The curriculum has not been approved. There was a whole committee of teachers/admins/community members that reviewed options and made recommendations, but Dr. Reid didn’t like any of the selections so it is delayed and will not be implemented in the fall as planned.[/quote]

OP Here: Thanks, from my understanding it was approved. Same question is PP, how did you find out?[/quote]

The county secondary math lead sent a request to all math teachers asking for input on pacing/structure for their course “in the event we do not adopt a basal resource as expected.”

Recommendations from the committee were sent to Reid in March, but she didn’t like them. Nothing has been approved, and this late in the game it is nearly impossible to have everything ready to go by fall.[/quote]

But how do you know she didn't like them? I got the same email about pacing input.

I watched the school board budget work session and Reid indicated that she thought that secondary math wasn't up for adoption for another year and seemed confused, rather than not happy with the options.

And if she doesn't like the options, what else is there? [/quote]

The math central office is exceedingly frustrated with Reid’s handling of it all, and they talk. If you have been in the county long enough, you probably know people there. Ask around…they’ll share.

“What else is there?” They put out new proposals with different requirements for what Reid actually wants, I guess. Start over, waste more time and money.

There is a potential for a 1 year mathspace/discovery option year, so that’s what will probably happen.[/quote]
