Math in PWCS has been a hot-button issue for many parents following the introduction of “Math Investigations” which prompted the creation of a website, “PWCTeachMathRight.com”.
The final adoption report for any new recommended materials is planned for presentation to the School Board for information and approval in February 2012.
