The Alabama Numeracy Act is a transformative statewide initiative designed to equip elementary educators with the skills, support, and resources essential for success in the classroom and to elevate student achievement in mathematics. This comprehensive legislation tackles Alabama’s math crisis head-on by providing schools with intensive, targeted support. Key elements include placing K-5 math coaches in every elementary school, supplying high-quality instructional materials and curricula aligned with Alabama’s teacher-crafted standards, and offering robust training for both teachers and principals. Additionally, it implements focused interventions for students needing extra help and establishes accountability measures to ensure continuous progress across all schools.
