District staff proposes Eureka Math adoption for K–5 at Beckemeyer; one-year cost estimated at $27,804
Summary
Hope McBrain proposed switching the Beckemeyer K–5 program to Great Minds' Eureka Math (a rebranded Engage NY) including workbooks and teacher guides; she presented a one-year price tag of $27,804 for the materials.
Curriculum Director Hope McBrain presented a proposal to the Curriculum Committee on April 8 to change the K–5 math curriculum at Beckemeyer to Eureka Math, an updated and rebranded Great Minds program formerly known as Engage NY. McBrain said the package includes student workbooks and teacher guides and framed the change as an update to the current Great Minds-based materials.
McBrain provided a one-year cost estimate for the proposed materials: "Total cost would be $27,804 for one year." The committee discussion did not include a recorded vote or a formal motion to purchase; the item was presented to inform the committee and surface budget implications. Any procurement would require board review and appropriation in a subsequent meeting.
