Math 180
Title I schools provide math intervention programs for eligible students. Students that score significantly below their grade level peers may be referred by their classroom teacher for diagnostic assessment and possible inclusion in Title I intervention programs.
What is Math 180?
Math 180 is an intensive Layer 2/ Layer 3 intervention program designed to meet the needs of students performing 2 grades below grade level. The program directly addresses individual needs through adaptive instructional software and direct instruction in essential skills and concepts necessary to unlock algebra and advanced mathematics (blended learning model).
