FSHISD board adopts new Grades 6–Algebra I math curriculum, citing state process changes
Summary
Following a public presentation on selection steps and costs, the board unanimously adopted a new math curriculum for Grades 6–Algebra I. The presentation referenced House Bill 1605 and the Texas Education Agency’s role in adopting instructional materials.
Teaching and Learning staff presented the district’s process for selecting High Quality Instructional Materials for Grades 6–Algebra I, including teacher input, vendor quotes, and Texas Education Agency rubrics used during the review. District staff noted HB 1605 (88th Legislature) changed the state’s instructional materials process and funding structure that guided the selection.
After discussion and a request to ensure alignment with the district’s 2026–2031 Strategic Plan and clarity about Tutor.com integration, Vice President Rebecca Zinnante moved and Secretary Aaron J. Braxton II seconded adoption of the recommended math curricula; the motion passed unanimously. The minutes indicate costs associated with materials: student and teacher print editions covered by IMRA ($6,465.00) and a student digital course cost listed at $6,475.95 to be covered with local funds if needed.
