Educators like Josh Robertson, secondary curriculum and instruction director for the Houston County School District in Alabama, agree: “One of the reasons I like enVision is that it’s a consistent program in all the K-12 classrooms across our district. That’s invaluable for our students.”
“Our district has had great success with enVision Math,” Robertson continued. “We have seen a significant increase in the rigor of the material being taught, and with that, an increase in student achievement. The curriculum is rigorous yet supportive, as it builds the level of rigor into the lesson. The program also provides our students with engaging material and opportunities for collaboration as well as challenge problems and activities. With enVision, the possibilities are really endless with what our students can do.”
