Board adopts new secondary English and math resources
What happened
The Board adopted Carnegie Learning Lenses on Literature for grades 6–12 and HMH resources for Algebra I, Algebra II and Geometry. Staff said grades 9–12 previously had no shared purchased English resource and teachers designed materials; the adoption aligns grades 6–12 while retaining novel-study flexibility. Identified components sum to $84,433.48 for English and total $63,367.28 for math, split between Title II professional development and General Fund materials.
