Description:
K12 mathematics performance is in a historic decline, with recent NAEP data showing that scores for fourth-, eighth-, and twelfth-graders remain significantly below 2019 levels. This systemic crisis reflects widening achievement gaps that begin in early grades and compound over time.
This Texas Public Charter School Network Webinar explores the roots of this decline through standards-aligned learning progressions from K-8 into Algebra 1 and Geometry. Participants will examine how foundational number sense and algebraic reasoning serve as the bedrock for higher mathematics and ensure system-wide coherence.
The session also addresses math anxiety in teachers and students, which often surfaces in early grades and impacts mathematical identity. Attendees will learn to manage anxiety and utilize productive struggle to support long-term growth.
Educators will receive guidance on:
Designed for teachers and leaders, this session provides concrete strategies to bolster the mathematics pipeline through early foundational understanding.
Date & Time: from 9/28/26 to 9/30/26 at the Hilton Anatole in Dallas, TX
