Board adopts Savvas math program; approves bilingual/multicultural program expansion

Apr 17, 2026

The board approved Savvas enVisionPLUS math instructional materials after an expanded teacher review process and approved changes and funding for bilingual/multicultural programming, including shifting Columbus Elementary toward a 50/50 Spanish/English model beginning in kindergarten.

The full story

Dr. Oldham described a revised, more inclusive adoption process for math instructional materials that opened review opportunities to all teachers and used a rubric adapted from the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics. Following teacher feedback and cost estimates, the board approved purchasing Savvas enVisionPLUS for K‑12. Staff said they will attempt to use current year cash balances to purchase materials earlier so teacher editions are available for summer planning rather than late summer delivery.
