Summary
The board approved adoption of Carnegie Learning for grades 6–12 after the curriculum committee recommended the materials and Carnegie offered reductions and complimentary supports to lower district cost.
The West Allis–West Milwaukee School District Board of Education voted May 19 to adopt Carnegie Learning as the recommended math curriculum for grades 6–12.
District curriculum staff members (presentation led by Miss Bridal and Mr. Lariski) told the board the adoption committee recommended Carnegie Learning after reviewing materials and implementation supports. Carnegie agreed to reduce or waive certain leadership training fees and offer complimentary items and conference attendance to reduce the district’s overall cost for the eight‑year adoption cycle.
Board members discussed costs and public questions about implementation. Curriculum presenters noted the adoption aims to provide consistent, research-aligned instructional materials across secondary classrooms. The motion to adopt Carnegie Learning was moved, seconded and approved by voice vote.
