MATHEMATICS

In the Sequim School District, we are guided by the belief that students’ ability to apply math concepts and skills are fundamental to our students’ success in the future.  Our goal is to have all students achieving high level of math understanding.  Students achieve when they have access to well-articulated, deliberately aligned common standards that are taught with best instructional practices in classrooms that are both caring and rigorous.  All students will graduate from the Sequim School District as successful mathematicians who understand high-level mathematics in ways that are relevant and interactive.

Student-centered classrooms that are inclusive, equity-focused, and standards-based will enable students to find meaningful mathematical applications in their everyday lives. 

Learning Standards

Students will experience a classroom environment that encourages risk-taking, learning from mistakes, and the promotion of a growth mindset. Sequim students will develop deep mathematical understanding of the content standards through the eight mathematical practices, as articulated in the Washington State K-12 Standards.
