Leander ISD administration recommends adopting Amplify Desmos Math Texas for K–5
Summary
Administration asked trustees to adopt Amplify Desmos Math Texas as the district’s Tier 1 K–5 math resource with early implementation in 2026–27 and districtwide rollout in 2027–28, citing Professional Learning Community and community feedback over Savvas enVision+. A vendor-led professional learning plan will be developed for early implementer campuses.
Leander Independent School District administrators recommended the board approve Amplify Desmos Math Texas as the district’s Tier 1 K–5 instructional resource, with early implementation on select campuses in 2026–27 and full districtwide adoption in 2027–28. The recommendation followed district Professional Learning Community (PLC) and community feedback favoring Amplify over an alternate (Savvas enVision+).
Administrators Lauren Meeks, Assistant Superintendent of Curriculum and Instruction, and Amanda Hardwick, Director of Humanities, said the district will draft a comprehensive professional learning plan with the vendor to support initial training and follow-up training for campuses choosing early implementation. The board packet included vote counts from PLCs (59 to 40) and community members (67% to 33%) favoring Amplify in the vendor comparison.
No formal board action or vote is recorded in the agenda text; the packet included a sample motion for adoption and a recommendation for approval. If trustees approve the item on the consent or regular agenda, district staff indicated they will present the finalized professional learning timeline to the board once the vendor plan is complete.
