Just remembering that the Seattle Schools Superintendent said that the only problems with the failure of the last High School math adoption attempt were political.
Check out how the Seattle Administration's Recommended adoption IMP .. The Interactive Math Program rated on the recent Instructional Materials rating done by the State of Washington for content alignment with state math standards.

Sure looks like IMP rates as either #15 out of 15
or perhaps #14 out of 15.
