Mathematics
is the language and science of patterns and connections. Doing
mathematics is an active process of constructing meaning through
exploration and inquiry.
We believe
that all students have the capability to become mathematically
literate. Mathematical literacy provides avenues for the
improvement of the quality of life. It empowers students to make
choices in their personal and professional lives. Our goal is to
equip students with the ability to cope confidently with the
mathematical demands they will face in their future. Seattle Public
Schools strives to provide a program of excellence that engages all
students in a rigorous curriculum rich in problem-solving
opportunities. According to NCTM, “a curriculum is more
than a collection of activities; it must be coherent, focused on
important mathematics, and well articulated across the
grades."
We invite you

mathematics curriculum and standards.
