• Participate in the elementary math curriculum adoption process: After intensely reviewing many options, a committee of Issaquah teachers recommended that Everyday Math move forward for in-depth study. Parents are invited to see examples of lessons, review parent resource materials, learn about the process, share feedback, and ask questions in small group settings with teachers at 7 p.m. this Wednesday, April 4, at Issaquah Middle School. Parents can also come to three open house events at the administration building to see the materials and ask questions: 7-9 p.m. Tuesday, April 17; 1-4 p.m. Friday, April 20; and 9-11 a.m. Monday, April 23. A tour of the Everyday Math materials, frequently asked questions, and the process timeline are also available on the elementary math adoption website.
