Our goal is that we build in that choice and agency for students, that it's truly a student choice in the third and fourth year of math.
For elementary level, obviously we are going to a new math program... the bigger shift is with middle school and high school, where we are trying to break the longer curriculum into smaller pieces, integrate statistics early, and it provides more flexibility.
