SCSD Vision of Mathematics Education
A sound understanding of mathematics is key to a student’s success in our rapidly changing 21st Century society. Our mission is to develop successful mathematicians…where students will become lifelong learners and critical thinkers. This requires high expectations for all students, a consistent implementation of curriculum that is aligned to Common Core State Standards, and teachers using the best research-based instructional practices in the classroom. Our students need to be college and career-ready.
SCSD is committed to providing the best mathematics education for our students. We believe that an understanding of math concepts and application to real-world situations are essential. Our goal is to provide students with opportunities to learn new things. Our classrooms promote a “culture” where asking good questions is encouraged and collaborating with other students is part of the process. We look forward to working with parents, teachers, and administrators as we foster a love of learning math for our students.
