The document provides information about a new math program being adopted for the 2011-2012 school year. It summarizes the program selection process, which included previewing 10 programs, collecting teacher feedback on 3 programs, and ultimately selecting Math in Focus based on alignment to standards, student needs, and teacher preferences. An implementation plan is outlined that will provide training for teachers over the next few years as the program is rolled out across grades K-5.
