Description:
This brief presents findings related to the impact of MCCs on students' achievement and the provision of a rigorous mathematics program in Title I schools. The purpose of this evaluation was to examine the effects of MCCs on students' achievement and the provision of a rigorous mathematics program in Title I schools.
Recommendations:
Focus instruction on the attainment of course-level content. Plan with a strong emphasis on vertical articulation and whole school focus-sequential continuity of skill building from one mathematics course to the next. Continue to systematically ensure that opportunities for rigor and acceleration are instituted in all grades, particularly in Grades K-2 to eliminate risks of gaps increasing in successive Grades. Develop action plans for decreasing within school achievement gaps.
