Project Metro
Milwaukee Public Schools is taking a lead on a comprehensive approach to integrating the mathematics Common Core State Standards with science standards. As a plan of action to improve pre-K to grade 12 student learning and achievement in mathematics and science, the MPS Comprehensive Mathematics and Science Plan (CMSP) is designed to equip every student with the levels of rigor and relevance needed for success in college and career readiness.
The CMSP expanded on the approach used in the 2010-11 school year for developing and implementing the Comprehensive Literacy Plan (CLP) to improve literacy performance.
The CMSP represents an effort to clearly define MPS’s vision and priorities for improving math and science teaching and learning that is to be implemented in every MPS school, at every grade, and in every course. In so doing, the district will more effectively engage parents and the community. The CMSP, an evidence-based plan, sets expectations for effective math and science education, including both strategies and supports, for all MPS schools and classrooms.
The plan includes the following:
Foundational to the CMSP is a districtwide vision for mathematics and science.
The plan includes a guaranteed and viable curriculum for mathematics and science, research-based instructional design and strategies, assessments that inform teaching and learning, aligned resources that include instructional technology, system-wide ongoing professional development, and broad community and constituency engagement.
This work is supported in part by the GE Foundation Developing Futures in Education Grant.
