Summary:
|
In June, the Board approved the Financial Algebra course as an approved A-G third year math course. As part of the course pilot, teachers also piloted the Financial Algebra textbook published by Cengage Learning. Inquiries with other publishers revealed that there are currently no other available textbooks that are aligned to the standards for this course. Therefore, we are recommending the adoption of this textbook for the new approved course. This adoption will be for at least four years, and will include online access to the text and resources.
