Mathematics textbooks for kindergarten through calculus will be available for viewing and comments from now until December 21, 2011.

The textbooks from Kindergarten through Algebra II will be available at:
Professional Library of the Edward. L. Kelly Leadership Center

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.
