The Lummi Nation School has received a two year $500,000 math grant to improve mathematics through grade 6.
The Bureau of Indian education requires that materials that have been demonstrated as effective in Indian Schools be used. The idea that improving a system requires the intelligent application of relevant data is actually used by the Bureau unlike OSPI.
Two direct instruction programs are approved for use.
Lummi Nation School selected Saxon for intervention use.
Look at the post below to see how well the OSPI disregard for direct instruction has affected those students struggling to learn.... statewide below level two scores are growing at 4th, 7th, and 10th grade levels over the last three years.

That's good news, Lummi really struggled with the reform math mavens.
Struggling is a mild description for the wreckage produced by Everyday Math.

I agree that there should have been more oversight - this is the golden age of reform and we have more schools that don't work than ever before.
OSPI can't even provide numbers on how many students 'actually' drop out of school.
