What this document actually says
This presentation updates the board on Math 7C, the district's accelerated math pathway. Beginning in 2024-25, all 6th graders take Math 7C (100% enrollment, up from 59% previously). Students previously split between regular Math 7 and accelerated Math 7C. The program uses Open Up Resources Accelerated Curriculum and provides targeted interventions through Strategies class, IXL skill plans, and spiral review. MAP test data shows student achievement and growth across grades 6-7. Of 93 students at Redwood High School, 59% are taking advanced math classes with an average GPA of 3.56. Placement into Algebra uses multiple criteria including MAP scores, MDTP readiness tests, IXL assessments, and curriculum performance.
What this means for your family
All 6th grade students now take the accelerated Math 7C course, eliminating the previous split between regular and accelerated tracks. This means your child will experience more challenging math curriculum with additional support services. Students who need extra help receive targeted interventions through Strategies class and personalized online learning. The change aims to increase access to advanced math opportunities in high school.
