 | Enhance Your Students' Understanding of the CAHSEE Math StandardsScholastic is proud to partner with California County Superintendents Educational Services Association (CCSESA) and County Offices of Education throughout the state to introduce the California Numeracy Project, a year-long course designed to help students master Math standards required to pass the California High School Exit Exam (CAHSEE). |
Meeting the California Graduation Challenge
The Numeracy Project is the culmination of a partnership with California Superintendents Educational Services Association (CCSESA), as well as several County Offices of Education to help meet the California graduation challenge.
While it was first developed for Court and Community students, the curriculum has proven to work for ALL students preparing for the CAHSEE, particularly those needing extra support, and can be easily implemented by teachers in a variety of settings.
