EaMML Project

East Metro Mathematics Leadership (EaMML) Math Science Partnership

Project Description

The East Metro Mathematics Leadership (EaMML) project is a collaboration among David Douglas School District (DDSD), Centennial School District (CSD), the Multnomah Education Service District (MESD), RMC Research, and Portland State University (PSU) that aims to improve mathematics teaching by developing a cadre of preK-12 teacher leaders that consistently use research-based instructional practices in support of student mathematics learning and take leadership in sharing that professional learning.

District statewide mathematics assessment scores in these districts show a negative trend in mathematics achievement for preK-12 students. Teachers in both districts have indicated a need for professional learning in instruction and assessment strategies aligned to the high expectations articulated by the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSS-M).
